Bajirao Hodage played a big part in Patna Pirates' run to the title in PKL 4. He was a reliable right cover possessing a fine dash which can throw any raider out of the court. Along with Nilesh Shinde, he was expected to lead the Delhi defence.

While Shinde has blown hot and cold still managing three High 5s, Bajirao has been an utter disappointment. The Maharashtra native has attempted 34 tackles and has failed with 24 of them.

He is averaging 1.25 tackle points per match his lowest in any PKL season. His poor performances have seen him benched in favour of debutant Swapnil Shinde.
