PKL 12: Haryana Steelers vs Patna Pirates prediction, possible starting 7, head-to-head & free live stream

Haryana Steelers will look to maintain their winning streak in PKL 12 against Patna Pirates.

Preparations have started for another blockbuster clash in the Rivalry Week. Pro Kabaddi League Season 11 finalists, Haryana Steelers and Patna Pirates, will battle for two points. The performances have been below par for both teams, and they want to get some momentum in the Jaipur leg.

Patna Pirates have been a single-man show with Ayan Lohchab doing the bulk of the scoring, but the three-time champions would want others to contribute if they have to win.

On the other hand, the Haryana Steelers have suffered a major setback due to Naveen Kumar‘s injury. Despite that, their raiding unit looks fine, but their defense hasn’t stood up like they used to, and the defending champions would expect more from their backline.

Haryana Steelers:

Raiders: Vinay, Shivam Patare, Jaya Soorya NS, Vishal S Tate, Vikas Ramdas Jadhav, Naveen Kumar, Mayank Saini, Ghansyam Roka Magar, Sahan Sha Mohammed.

Players to watch out for

Haryana Steelers – Shivam Patare

Whenever there is talk about the raiders of Haryana Steelers, everyone’s eyes are always on Naveen Kumar or Vinay. But one man does it stealthily and with astonishing consistency.

Shivam Patare is known for his wonderful contributions, and it was the left raider who scored the most points for Haryana in the finals last year against Patna Pirates.

Patna Pirates – Ayan Lohchab

Ayan Lohchab is literally like a pirate on Patna’s ship, struggling in the seas of PKL. He will again be the pivotal cog for the three-time champions against the duo of Jaideep Dahiya and Rahul Sethpal.

He became the first man ever to score 20+ points in two consecutive games. He will look to continue the momentum to help his team beat the Steelers.

Possible starting 7

Haryana Steelers –  Mayank Saini, Vinay, Shivam Patare, Rahul Sethpal, Rahul Ahri, Neeraj, Jaideep Dahiya.

Patna Pirates – Milan Dahiya, Ayan Lohchab, Sudhakar M, Deepak Singh, Sanket Sawant, Navdeep, Ankit Jaglan.

Match Prediction

Haryana Steelers have an edge in this match as their raiding unit looks stronger than Patna. For Patna, Ayan contributes big, but at the end of the day, Kabaddi is a team sport. In such a scenario, the Steelers are the favourites.
