Puneri Paltan: B
Trending
Manjeet Chhillar-led Puneri Paltan qualified for the semi-final for the first time in three attempts last season. This season they look strong enough to at least repeat last season’s heroics, if not improve on it.
The signings of Ravinder Pahal and Joginder Narwal have liberated Manjeet and allowed him to concentrate more on raiding, a department which got a boost by the influx of Nitin Tomar and Sonu Narwal. With Deepak Niwas Hooda already on their books, their raiding department is one of the strongest in the league despite Nitin’s poor form.
With 4 wins and a draw in 7 matches, the Paltan are just 1 point off top-placed Patna Pirates. Former title-winning coach with Jaipur, Kasinathan Baskaran could be set to create history with Puneri Paltan this season.
