#1 Hit - Patna Pirates can win without Pardeep Narwal
The Pirates were dealt a major blow ahead of their final home assignment against the Bengal Warriors as skipper Pardeep Narwal was forced to the sidelines owing to a wrist injury. With the skipper out of action, the Warriors were upbeat to get the better of the defending champions.

However, what transpired was exactly the opposite as Jaideep, captaining the side for the first time this season, led the way with a 'High-5'. Besides him, Deepak Narwal and Tushar Patil, the latter as a substitute, took up the raiding duties.
The lanky Manjeet chipped in with a few raid points while Vijay proved his worth as an all-rounder to finish with four points, two raid points and two tackle points in all. In the end, Pardeep Narwal's absence was put to dust as the rest of the team combined to outclass the Warriors and in the process sent out a statement that Pardeep Narwal's presence is not the only calling card for the defending champions.
