Our team is trying to improve themselves compare to our last match against Dabur Mumbai Magicians. I believe with the support of home crowd we will win this game.

Speaking on the preparations Head Coach of Kalinga Laners, Terry Walsh said “It will be a tough game against Ranchi Rhinos at their home ground. Also Ranchi has few star players who have the potential to turn the game at any moment, so it will not be an easy task to beat the Defending Champions Ranchi Rhinos. Our team has shown a lot of progress in the last game against Delhi Waveriders and I am sure my boys will play as per planned strategy and give their best to beat the Ranchi Rhinos.”
