Winning ways

Winning ways

After enduring a slump in their home leg, which saw them fail to win any of their games, Tamil Thalaivas will be eager to return to winning ways against Bengal Warriors.

The southerners are currently languishing in the bottom half of the standings and need a win to turn their season around.

Better team

Better team

On the other hand, in their 10 matches so far, Bengal Warriors have looked amongst the better teams in PKL season seven and also boast of the best score difference.

The key to their success has been the form of their raiding trifecta of skipper Maninder Singh, K. Prapanjan and Iranian Mohammad Nabibakhsh.

Big incentive

Big incentive

A big incentive is that If they win on the night, at the conclusion of Delhi leg, Bengal Warriors could find themselves as high as the second in the PKL Season 7 standings.

However, Tamil Thalaivas will take encouragement from their form on the road this year and will want skipper 'Iceman' Ajay Thakur to rise to the challenge alongside ‘Showman' Rahul Chaudhari.
