Bengal Warriors vs Haryana Steelers Match Prediction
Nitin Kumar and Maninder Singh have led the raiding department of the team brilliantly so far. However, Shubham Shinde has been the only positive for the team in the defense, but the other defenders have failed miserably this season so far.
Chandran Ranjit had a brilliant start to the season, as the experienced raider notched up 11 raid points in his first game of the season. Mohit Nandal was instrumental in the defense as he registered a high five against the Jaipur Pink Panthers.
Haryana Steelers look like a more balanced side in both departments, and they are expected to edge out the Warriors in their upcoming fixture.
Prediction: Haryana Steelers to win the match.
