Bengaluru Bulls vs Haryana Steelers Probable Playing 7s
Bengaluru Bulls
Pawan Sehrawat once again failed to remain on the mat for a long period, which has been the story for the Bulls this season. He could only manage to pick up seven raid points. While Chandran Ranjit also bagged seven raid points, Bharat failed to make a significant contribution.
Saurabh Nandal, Jaideep, Mahender Singh, and Mayur Kadam were amongst the tackle points but the defense failed to perform in tandem, which eventually cost them their last game.
Probable Starting 7: More GB, Pawan Kumar Sehrawat, Chandran Ranjit, Mahender Singh, Saurabh Nandal, Bharat, Aman.
Haryana Steelers
Vikash Kandola led from the front against U Mumba. He had a stellar night with 13 raid points and a tackle point as well. Ashish also put up a good all-round show with 10 raids and three tackle points. Surender Nada managed to pick up three tackle points as well.
It was a good outing for Haryana, although they will expect their defense to put up a better performance this time around.
Probable Starting 7: Ashish, Vikash Kandola, Surender Nada, Meetu Mahender, Jaideep Kuldeep, Mohit, Vijay Kumar
Today’s PKL Match Prediction
The Bengaluru Bulls have struggled for consistency in the second half of the season. An evident dip in Pawan’s form has cost the side. The defense has not been consistent either. The Bulls will be under pressure as this is a must-win game to keep their hopes of staying in the competition alive.
The Haryana Steelers, on the other hand, are going through a good patch of form. They have been doing well as a unit. If they can manage to keep Pawan quiet for a long period, they will have a clear edge in this contest. The likes of Vikash and Ashish will be a threat to the Bulls in this match.
Prediction: Haryana Steelers to beat Bengaluru Bulls in this fixture.
