TEAMS PREVIEW

Jaipur Pink Panthers Preview

The Jaipur Pink Panthers' form has been inconsistent in the last few games, winning only two of their last five. Their most recent loss came against the UP Yoddhas, with a scoreline of 33-29. The Pink Panthers held a one-point lead at halftime (19-20) and seemed poised to win the game. However, the Yoddhas slowed down the pace of the game, which the Panthers struggled to adapt to. The Yoddhas capitalized on this, scoring points in the final five minutes to take the lead and secure the victory.

Arjun Deshwal led the Pink Panthers' scoring with 6 points (3 touch, 2 bonus, and 1 tackle). Shrikant Jadhav contributed 3 raid points, and Neeraj Narwal added 5 points (3 touch and 2 tackle). The defense, led by Lucky Sharma (4 tackle points), Ankush Rathee (3 tackle points), and Reza Mirbagheri (2 tackle points), performed well.

The Pink Panthers are still searching for a secondary raider to support Arjun Deshwal and provide relief when he's off the court. Additionally, their defense has been inconsistent in the last three games, with the cover defenders making some costly errors. If they can address these issues, the Panthers will have a better chance of winning their upcoming match.

This season, the Pink Panthers have averaged 33.92 points per game while conceding 32.35. Their raiding unit averages 18.79 raid points per game (ranked 8th), and their defense averages 10.71 tackle points per game (ranked 3rd). Arjun Deshwal and Ankush Rathee have been their top performers, with 152 raid points and 38 tackle points, respectively.

Jaipur Pink Panthers Probable Starting 7 - Arjun Deshwal, Neeraj Narwal, Abhijeet Malik, Surjeet Singh, Reeza Mirbagheri, Lucky Sharma, Ankush Rathee

Telugu Titans Preview

The Telugu Titans continued their impressive form, delivering a clinical performance against U Mumba to secure their ninth win of the season. This marks the first time the Titans have won more than eight games in a single season. Vijay Malik (10 raid points) and Ashish Narwal (9 raid points and 1 tackle point) were the key performers for the Titans. Sagar Rawal, with a high five, was outstanding in defense. Ankit Jaglan contributed two tackle points from the left corner, while Krishan Dhull, who replaced Shankar Gadai early in the game, added three tackle points.

The Titans now turn their attention to the Jaipur Pink Panthers, a team they lost heavily to earlier this season. The Titans' defense, particularly the left side with Ankit Jaglan and right cover Sagar Rawal, will need to step up their performance. Limiting Arjun Deshwal's impact will be crucial for the Titans. If they can achieve this, and Vijay Malik continues his good form, the Titans will have a strong chance of winning the match. 

This season, the Titans have averaged 33.85 points per game and conceded 34.60 points per game. Their raiding unit averages 20.29 raid points per game, the second-best in the season, while their defense is averaging 9.21 tackle points per game. Vijay Malik, with 103 raid points, is the leading raider among active players, and Sagar Sethpal, with 33 tackle points, is the top defender for the Titans.

Telugu Titans Probable Starting 7 - Vijay Malik, Ashish Narwal, Manjeet, Sagar Sethpal, Ajit Pawar, Shankar Gadai, Ankit Jaglan

JPP vs TELT
Winning Prediction

The Telugu Titans are in great form and are looking to continue their winning streak against the inconsistent Jaipur Pink Panthers. With a strong raiding duo of Vijay Malik and Ashish Narwal, and a solid defense led by Sagar Rawal and Ankit Jaglan, the Titans have a significant advantage. The Panthers, despite having Arjun Deshwal, have struggled to find consistency, especially in their defense. If the Titans can limit Deshwal's impact and maintain their defensive intensity, they are likely to emerge victorious.
