#3 Potential depth in raiding in the absence of Maninder Singh
With a plethora of raiding options in the squad, the Bengal Warriors have never lagged behind in terms of points accumulated on the raiding front. The likes of K Prapanjan, Sukesh Hegde, and Mohammad Nabibakhsh have scored 48.68% of Bengal Warriors raid' points this season.
While the secondary raiders have proved to be dominant whenever given opportunities, skipper Maninder Singh has brought about 41.75% of Bengal Warriors' raid points, which goes on to show that the Warriors have not been overly dependent on their captain this season.
Bengal are one of the only two teams to have three raiders scoring 80+ raid points this season. While Maninder Singh has been the top raider in 10 matches, the others have stepped up to the plate when Maninder has not done well. With such depth in their raiding department, Bengal Warriors look solid on the offensive front, heading into the final.
If Maninder Singh remains out of action for the final encounter, it won't hurt Bengal as the other raiders have been performing well. If he joins the side on the day, it will undoubtedly boost the entire side.
