Players to watch out for

Patna Pirates – Ayan Lohchab

Ayan Lohchab has grabbed headlines this season. Despite being a one-man show, he has carried the Patna Pirates throughout the season, and he did it again in the second play-in game against U Mumba.

His performance against the experienced Sunil Kumar will be his scale. If he could repeat it against Reza Mirbagheri, then he could become the lead Raider this season.

Jaipur Pink Panthers – Aryan Kumar

Sports don’t build character; they reveal it, and the first Play-in game saw the best of Aryan Kumar. Haryana Steelers fielded their best team and were the favourites going into the game.

But Aryan’s defensive plan was perfect against the Haryana raiders. He will again be the new player with renewed confidence and will be crucial to take Jaipur to the next round.

Possible Starting 7

Jaipur Pink Panthers – Nitin Dhankhar, Reza Mirbagheri, Mohit, Ali Samadi, Parvinder, Deepanshu Khatri, Aryan Kumar.

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