#5 U Mumba keep their flame burning

U Mumba's chances of qualification are slim.
U Mumba's chances of qualification are slim.

On Sunday, U Mumba registered their 10th victory in 18 games. In doing so, they kept their slim hopes of qualification alive. This has by far been their most challenging season so far. Time and again, they've been tested to the limit and they've found it extremely hectic on the mat.

Anup Kumar will not admit it but this is probably the weakest Mumbai outfit he has captained since the season's inception. With no defenders that he can bank on, he's gone out his way and at times played as a corner defender.

He's attempted more raids than he would have liked. But it's always been for a bigger cause. A playoff without U Mumba will be weird but it is very much a possibility. For now, they can breathe easy and wait and watch what Haryana Steelers do.
