#5 Uttar Pradesh
Trending
Possibly the most underrated defence in the league, Uttar Pradesh made some shrewd defensive signings and will make their debut with a solid foundation. Former U Mumba tank, Jeeva Kumar will lead the backline. Under his tutelage, the untested trio of Gurvinder Singh, Hadi Tajik and Santosh B.S will hope to make their mark. Unlike other stellar defenders, they wouldn’t be under constant scrutiny, an ideal environment for them to shine.
Apart from Jeeva, Uttar Pradesh have another experienced campaigner in Rajesh Narwal. The all-rounder will shoulder additional defensive responsivities this season, considering they have Rishank Devadiga and Nitin Tomar in the raiding department.
