@19:48 – Jaipur Pink Panthers bounce back, reduce the deficit to just a solitary point.

@19:42 – Gujarat Giants make bright start, lead 18-12 vs Jaipur Pink Panthers.

Both Jaipur Pink Panthers and Gujarat Giants will be looking to seal a statement victory in their first outing after a disappointing campaign in 2019. Despite making a strong start, Deepak Niwas Hooda’s men in pink fizzled out in the crucial stages of Season 7. But with Arjun Deshwal, a raider known for his ability to fetch points when there are 4 or 5 players on the mat, added to the attacking department, the Panthers will be quietly confident of a strong showing this time around.

But in their way will be one of the best defensive units of VIVO PKL Season 8 – Gujarat Giants have added Ravinder Pahal and Girish Ernak in the auctions to bolster a defence that already had the likes of Sunil Kumar and Parvesh Bhainswal. The trio of Ravinder, Sunil and Parvesh play for the Railways (national), their teamwork and co-ordination will be key to Giants’ fortune after they lost their star raider Rohit Gulia to Haryana in the auctions.
