The Jaipur Pink Panthers will take on Telugu Titans in Star Sports Pro Kabaddi Season 4 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Wednesday. The Abhishek Bachan owned team hopes to perform well in front of their home fans after a close two-point defeat against U-Mumba on the opening day. The young Telugu Titans team led by Rahul Chaudhari suffered an early loss at the hands of Puneri Paltan as both teams desperate to register their first win in season 4 edition of Pro Kabaddi.
The Live Streaming for the game between the Jaipur Pink Panthers and Telugu Titans will be available on starsports.com from 20:00 IST. The match will be telecasted live from Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, and will be aired on Star Sports 2 (HD) in English and Star Sports 3 (HD) in Hindi.
For Jaipur, the new recruit Shabeer Bapu was exceptional against his former team U Mumba but sadly, there was nobody on the other end to support him. Jasvir Singh, the captain of the Jaipur Pink Panthers looked awful and simply gifted a point to U Mumba due to a hasty raid in the final minutes of the game. Jasvir’s error played a huge part in the outcome of the match.
The defensive duo Ran Singh and Rohit Rana who had a poor season 3 looked solid in their defensive duties against Mumbai. The all-rounder Rajesh Narwal was scratchy against U Mumba but the 25-year-old looks to be an important weapon for the Panthers moving forward.
The Titans, on the other hand, rely a lot on their star raiders Rahul Chaudhari and Sukesh Hegde to come good against the Panthers. The in-form Rahul Chaudhari was less effective against the Puneri Paltan and the fans expect their star raider to put a strong show against Jaipur. Sukesh Hegde, one of the players to be retained along with his skipper, can trouble the Jaipur defence in do-or-die situations.
Sandeep Narwal was prolific in the right corner for his new franchise and the athletic Vinoth Kumar made a strong impact against Pune with remarkable raids. The defence of the Titans looked vulnerable against the Paltans and lot of pressure was put on Sandeep Narwal. Therefore the Titans defenders need to play an integral part in today’s encounter.
It’s 4-2 in favour of Jaipur in their last six previous outings. This time, it’s likely to be an evenly matched contest and more importantly it’s a battle between the raiders of two teams. Let’s wait and watch who comes out on top.
