PKL 12: Patna Pirates vs Jaipur Pink Panthers prediction, possible starting 7, head-to-head & free live stream

Patna Pirates will aim to maintain their winning momentum in PKL 12 against the Jaipur Pink Panthers.

Three-time champions Patna Pirates will face Jaipur Pink Panthers in the final league match of Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12), aiming to secure a place in the top 8 by winning.

The Panthers suffered a loss in their last game but have already secured their spot in the top 8. On the other hand, the Pirates are on a four-match winning streak yet haven’t guaranteed their place.

Patna dominated Dabang Delhi in their previous match, winning by a massive 35-point margin, making them favourites for the final spot in the top 8.

However, the Panthers could still spoil their party. In the earlier encounter this season, Jaipur Pink Panthers defeated the Pirates 39-36, with Nitin Dhankar scoring 13 raid points.

Players to watch out for

Patna Pirates – Ayan Lohchab

Ayan has been the standout performer for the Patna Pirates this season. He currently holds the second position on the list of leading raid point scorers and has maintained excellent form throughout the campaign.

His performance will be crucial against the Jaipur Pink Panthers in this important match to secure their place in the top 8.

Jaipur Pink Panthers – Nitin Dhankhar

Nitin Dhankhar missed a few games earlier this season due to injury, but he has made a strong comeback in recent matches. He has regained his pre-injury form and consistency, leading the raiding lineup with confidence.

Although the team has already secured their place in the top 8, they have a chance to spoil the Pirates’ party, and for that, Nitin will need to continue performing at the same high level he has shown throughout the season.

Possible Starting 7

Patna Pirates – Milan Dahiya, Ayan Lohchab, Ankit Rana, Deepak Singh, Balaji D, Navdeep, Ankit Jaglan.

Jaipur Pink Panthers – Nitin Dhankar, Reza Mirbagheri, Aashish Kumar, Ali Samadi, Nitin Rawal, Deepanshu Khatri, Aryan Kumar.

Match Prediction

Patna Pirates will need to bring their A-game, with a crucial top-8 qualification spot on the line. There’s a possibility that the Jaipur Pink Panthers might rest some of their key players and start with their backups, but if they aim to maintain momentum heading into the playoffs, they could play their main seven.

In that case, the Panthers would be eager to defeat the Pirates and spoil their playoff hopes.
