PKL 2019 | Important to have experienced players in your team, says Sunil Kumar

Gujarat Fortunegiants is at the second position in the points table with 15 points and a point difference of 48. They have won three out of their three encounters till now. Gujarat won its first two matches quite comfortably and that too with a big lead but last night’s match was tough a one for them. However, in the end, they emerged victorious against a well-balanced Dabang Delhi unit.   

Gujarat showcased an all-round performance where both the defence and raiding worked well for them and seemed to be in perfect synchronization. The highest points scored in the whole match for Gujarat was by More and he has emerged as one of the most dependable players for them. He scored five points in raiding without getting out even once and he scored four points in defence as well. With him getting in form Gujarat looks like a complete side in the ongoing tournament.

“It’s also important to have experienced players in your team. Having players like More G B on the mat is very crucial because he guides us during matches and tells us what to expect next from the raiders. So, More G B helped us a lot in this win as well. He executed a thigh hold on Naveen Kumar at an important juncture, which gave us the momentum for the win,” Gujarat skipper Sunil Kumar said in the post-match press conference.
