C. Arun (Jaipur Pink Panthers)

Jaipur Pink Panthers managed to eke out a tie against Dabang Delhi on Day 3 of the leg, and that was largely down to the superb defending of C. Arun. The Pink Panthers may have crashed out of the tournament, but the 22-year-old Arun has given them something to be happy about.

Manjeet Chhillar (Puneri Paltan)

Puneri Paltan have put one foot in the semi-finals with their exploits at the Thyagaraj Sports Complex, having reaching the second spot in the table. Their stellar performances were spearheaded by the captain Manjeet Chhillar, who scored a total of 19 points in two matches.

The 29-year-old helped the Paltan beat Telugu Titans for the first time in their history as he registered eight tackle points. His contributions have been absolutely vital as the Pune franchise look to make their debut in the semi-finals.

Anil Nimbolkar (Dabang Delhi)

One Dabang Delhi player who can hold his head up high after a disappointing home leg is Anil Nimbolkar. He showed the Eagles' think-tank why he needs to be given more opportunities by amassing 14 points against Bengal Warriors. In his first start for the Eagles, Anil ransacked the Warriors' defence and almost single-handedly won the match for the home side.

Nitin Tomar (Bengal Warriors)

Cometh the hour, cometh the man! Nitin Tomar returned to the team after being out for four matches due to injury, and he delivered straight away. The raider scored 13 points to silence the home crowd and help the Warriors move up to 3rd spot with a 37-31 win over Dabang Delhi. Tomar couldn’t have timed his return any better as the Warriors look to make a last-ditch attempt to reach the semifinals.
