U Mumba vs Jaipur Pink Panthers Match Prediction
Bittu and Mahender Singh were the star performers for the team against the Bulls, as the duo picked up six and four points, respectively. However, the team will be expecting more from their star raiders, Guman Singh and Amirmohammad Zafardanesh, in their upcoming clash.
Jaipur Pink Panthers, on the other hand, have played as a combined unit so far. After a slow start, Arjun Deshwal has found his lost form, while the experienced duo of Ankush and Reza Mirbagheri have led the defensive unit of the team brilliantly.
Therefore, the defending champions will start the game as slight favorites considering the balance of their team.
Prediction: Jaipur Pink Panthers to win the match
