Match Analysis

Patna Pirates

The Patna Pirates have let go of Pardeep narwal but they have acquired another very experienced raider in Monu Goyat. He showed his worth in the first match by finishing with 15 raid points and leading his side to a victory. That was a result that came their way despite the team being behind after the first half. It was almost as if a switch turned during half-time and we got to see what the Patna Pirates were really capable of. Prashanth Kumar Rai and Sachin also had a good game, displaying the depth in the raiding unit.

Among the defenders, Sunil was the only real performer and while Sajin also chipped in, the rest of the defense needs to improve its performances.

UP Yoddha

It will be surreal seeing Pardeep Narwal go up against his old team but that is exactly what will happen in this match. Pardeep is a part of the UP Yoddha setup and will certainly be hoping for a better showing than what we saw in the previous match. He finished with 8 points to his name and was well supported by Surinder Gill but the UP Yoddha remained short of consistency in attack.

Nitesh Kumar is an absolute beast when it comes to defense and it was his lack of points in the match that will raise concerns. He will have a huge role to play in this match against the Patna Pirates and UP Yoddha needs him to be at his best.

Key stat

Monu Goyat's 15 points in the opening match is one of the best performances that we have seen in PKL 2021-22 so far. UP Yoddha had a tackle success rate of just 34% in its opening match and that is just not good enough for a team to succeed consistently in the PKL.

Verdict

We are going to bet on the Patna Pirates to win this match. We think the raiding duo of Monu Goyat and Prashanth Kumar Rai is going to be much more difficult to stop than Pardeep Narwal and Surinder Gill. The defense of both teams looked a bit short of confidence in the first match but both of them should recover to put in stronger performances. A close match is likely but we are backing the Patna Pirates to come out winners in the end.

Bet on the Patna Pirates to win.
