Naveen Kumar, the first-ever 21st-century born player to play in PKL 2019, has had a tremendous run in the ongoing edition of the PKL. Having made a big impression last season, Naveen has bettered his record this season, with 285 points from 22 matches, at an average of 12.95 points per game.

From 22 matches, Naveen has picked up 21 Super 10s and is enjoying a fantastic record of 20 Super 10s in a row this season. With the cover defenders of Bengal Warriors unable to hold their end and pick up tackle points, Naveen could be expected to run through their defensive unit.

Across two matches played against the Warriors, Naveen has 26 points to his credit and has been brought down only six times. Given his 63% strike rate this season, he will undoubtedly be Delhi's biggest trump card, and if the Warriors' defenders hand him the momentum early in the game, the youngster could run away with a big lead for his side.
