PKL 2018, Eliminator 1, U Mumba v UP Yoddha: UP Yoddha's solid defence knocks U Mumba out of the competition

UP Yoddha

Shrikant Jadhav topped the scoring charts on the raiding front for UP

Rishank Devadiga - 7.5/10

The UP Yoddha skipper collected just five points including two tackle points but his presence on the mat was of paramount importance that helped the Yoddha to inflict continual damage on U Mumba.

Nitesh Kumar - 9/10

UP Yoddha's right corner was the best player on the mat from both sides as his formidable ankle holds kept the threat of Siddharth Desai at bay that resulted in Kumar picking up a 'High-5' from the game and finished with 8 tackle points, his best performance in the history of the league.

Jeeva Kumar - 8.5/10

The veteran right cover defender was at his roaring best as he picked up his first 'High-5' of the season and was instrumental in many a tackle in the game, including a super tackle on the lanky Siddharth Desai in the second half.

Shrikant Jadhav - 7/10

Jadhav slotted into the role of the primary leader in the game as he picked up two raid points in the first half and added three more in the second half to finish with five raid points in all.

Prashant Kumar Rai - 5/10

The lanky raider was not his usual best as he could just pick up four raid points from the game and was brought down on a number of occasions during the Do or Die raids.

Narender - 4.5/10

The right cover defender was not in the brightest of form as he advanced tackles gifted a few easy points to Siddharth Desai and then Abolfazl Maghsodlou in the second half.

Sachin Kumar - 4/10

Sachin Kumar did not have too much to do in the game as he played only a helping hand to the tackles made by Jeeva and Nitesh Kumar.
