Bengal Warriors captain Maninder Singh and UP Yoddha captain Nitesh Kumar
Coming off victories in their previous fixtures, the Bengal Warriors and UP Yoddha will seek to maintain their momentum when they take on each other in match 69 of PKL 2021.
Strategic Takeaways
The Warriors come into this contest with a win over the Bengaluru Bulls, courtesy a stunning review by Mohammad Nabibakhsh which resulted in an eight-point raid. After starting the season on a high Nabibakhsh has seen a dip in form and captain Maninder Singh has a solo warrior for the defending champions.
The Yoddha started their campaign on a rocky note, but have since found their rhythm. Pardeep Narwal seems to have played himself into form in the previous two encounters, while Surender Gill continues to pocket points at will. Their defensive unit, too, seems to have found their feet and would be hoping to have a winning start to the second half of the league.
Head to Head
The Warriors versus Yoddha is one of the most hard-fought rivalries in history of PKL. The defending champions went past the Yoddha by five points when they met in the very first day of PKL 2021.
