Jaipur Pink Panthers vs Puneri Paltan Match Preview: 

Jaipur Pink Panthers have had a horrendous start in the Pro Kabaddi League season 8 till now as they are currently placed on the 10th spot in the points table with two wins and fours losses in six matches. Panthers have lost their last 2 games back-to-back, with a 31-38 loss against Bengaluru Bulls. The maiden 

PKL champions would be looking to make a strong comeback. 

Puneri Paltan is no better than Jaipur Pink Panthers this season as they are currently at the last spot on the points table with two wins and four losses in six games. Paltan however managed to put an end to their 3-match losing streak, with a 33-26 win against Gujarat Giants in their last fixture. 

Arjun Deshwal was the lone warrior for Jaipur Pink Panthers in their last game, whereas all other teammates failed to ably support the raider. Few names – the likes of Nitin Rawal, Sandeep Dhull and Vishal Lather who were excluded from the starting 7 in the last game may make their way back as part of the rotation. 

A huge cause of concern for Puneri Paltan coach Anup Kumar is the unavailability of regular captain Nitin Tomar. Vishwas S may make way for Rahul Chaudhari or Pankaj Mohite if any of them manage to prove their fitness before the match.
