Pro Kabaddi PKL 8: Struggling UP Yoddha will take on a high-flying Dabang Delhi in the Pro Kabaddi League tomorrow which is being played at Sheraton Grand, Bengaluru – Follow PKL 2021-22 LIVE Updates on InsideSport.IN
Having managed just a solitary win in six games so far, UP Yoddha will be up against a stiff challenge from Dabang Delhi, who are currently sitting comfortably at the second spot in the points table. UP Yoddha, having signed Pardeep Narwal at the auctions, haven’t really performed to their potential. Pardeep Narwal is currently the highest scorer of his team having earned 44 raid points. However he has not been at his best this season.
Raider Surender Gill, has emerged as a key raider for the Yoddha, who was particularly impressive in the last game as he scored almost 50% of the team’s total by earning 14 valuable points.

For Dabang Delhi, Naveen Kumar has been phenomenal with his raids. During the last game against Telugu Titans he picked up 25 points and became the first raider to score more than 100 points in this season. The team however lacks another solid raider to partner Naveen and that will be something that the UP Yoddha will look to exploit. The more time Naveen spends away from the mat, the more easier it will be for UP Yoddha to topple Delhi.
UP Yoddha will hope that their defennders – Nitesh Kumar, Sumit and Ashu Singh who haven’t had much success so far will step up to the ocassion. Against a team like Delhi it is important for Yoddha to strut their defence. Delhi’s defence has a lot of work to do as Joginder Narwal’s men have been error-prone this season. Pardeep Narwal and co will look to exploit this weak-link to bring about a change of fortunes to their side.
