The team’s strength has been their young athletes. Raiders Aslam Inamdar and Mohit Goyat have taken turns to attack the opposition with pace and strength. Cover defenders Abinesh Nadarajan and Sanket Sawant have also been excellent at charging down any attackers.
But in Jaipur, they will face a very difficult opponent. Experienced star Deepak Hooda and his raiding partner Arjun Deshwal are known to pick points from even the toughest defences. The Panthers’ defence of Sahul Kumar, Vishal and Sandeep Dhull will also be keen on clinching a statement victory that can help Jaipur stay in the hunt for a top 6 finish.
