It was a painful night for Dabang Delhi and their fans on Thursday after they were handed an extremely tough loss by the Patna Pirates on home turf. However, tonight is a new one and the hosts will look to bounce back when they lock horns against the Jaipur Pink Panthers in the second match of the double header on Friday.
Like has been the case throughout the competition, all hopes for the Eagles would be pinned on star raider Kashiling Adake, who has been superb for them so far, with 72 points to his credit and will look to motivate his side to clinch only their second tie of the season against a Panthers outfit, themselves recovering from a hammering at the ends of the Pirates in their last match.
However, if Delhi are to win, then they would definitely need a total team effort and so they will expect a lot from Surjeet Singh as well, who has scored 68 raid points this season, and is one of the brightest sparks to come out of the league.
For the visitors, the key men will be Sonu Narwal, who has scored 49 points in 12 matches that he has played so far and Rajesh Narwal, who has scored 39 points this season. Jasvir Singh hasn't had the best of times and the Eagles would certainly look to take advantage of his indifferent form.
Having suffered a couple of losses at home so far, the Dabangs will be looking to provide their fans with some good performances to cheer for, and would want to finish their remaining home matches with wins, starting tonight.
The previous encounter between these two teams saw the Jaipur Pink Panthers defeat the Dabangs 39-34 in a thrilling match.
