He will pose a severe threat to the opposition territory with consistent support from his teammates - Shrikant Jadhav, Manoj Gowda, and Deepak Hooda. The raiders and the Warriors are backed up by solid defence too. 

Girish Maruti Ernak has scored 17 tackle points. He will have Vaibhav Garje and Shubham Shinde as his partners in defense. Similarly, Jaipur Pink Panthers have their formidable trio.

Preview : Puneri Paltan v Telugu Titans

Telugu Titans suffered a severe loss in the last game, so they will try to make for it in the upcoming match against Puneri Paltan. The Titans were inadequate both offensively and defensively.

Vinay, with 23 raid points under his belt, is their highest-scoring raider till now. They will not thrive if the likes of Siddharth Desai and Monu Goyat fail to deliver. 

Meanwhile, Vishal Bhardwaj and Surjeet Singh have done a decent job on the defensive front, with six tackle points each. Parvesh Bhainswal scored five tackle points, and the trio could turn things around for the Titans. 

Puneri Paltan will walk into the match after their first win of the season against U Mumba. Aslam Inamdar and Mohammad Nabibakhsh registered eight raid points and four tackle points, respectively. 

Aslam Inamdar leads with 46 raid points, followed by Mohit Goyat, who has snapped up 27 raid points so far. Defensively, Gaurav Khatri will lead the team, and a bit of support from Fazel Atrachali, who raked in six tackle points since his arrival in season nine, could work wonders for the Pune-based side. 

Head to head

In the 16 matches played, Puneri Paltan currently leads with nine victories against five for the Titans. One of the matches ended in a draw. 

Lineup

Puneri Paltan

Raiders: Aslam Inamdar, Mohit Goyat, and Akash Shinde.

Defenders: Gaurav Khatri, Sanket Sawant, and Fazel Atrachali.

All-Rounders: Mohammad Nabibakhsh

Telugu Titans

Raiders: Abhishek Singh, Monu Goyat, and Siddharth Sirish Desai.

Defenders: Surjeet Singh, Parvesh Bhainswal, Vishal Bhardwaj, and Ravinder Pahal.

Prediction: Puneri Paltan seems likelier to take this one, and our hopes are pinned on star raider Inamdar and prolific defender Fazel Atrachali. They are already turning heads with their brilliance.
