He was their top scorer in both offence and defence in the game against Puneri Paltan, managing a High 5. Corners Mohit Chhillar and Sandeep Dhull also put in good performances and Jaipur Pink Panthers will hope to see another defensive spectacle from the pair. Captain Anup Kumar is one point away from 500 raid points in Pro Kabaddi as he seeks to be the 6th player to the landmark. Key Players Manjeet- Patna Pirates Young raider Manjeet, in his debut season, has performed exceptionally, showing he can tackle as well. The tall, lanky raider will look to put in another strong performance and give Patna Pirates a victory that will lift them off the bottom of Zone B. Deepak Niwas Hooda- Jaipur Pink Panthers Deepak Niwas Hooda managed a High 5 against Puneri Paltan, returning as Jaipur Pink Panthers’ top raider and defender from the game. His return to form as a full-blown all-rounder bodes well for the team. Content courtesy: prokabaddi.com
