Countdown to the most anticipated match is here, UP Dangal taking on Delhi Sultans. UP Dangal are already in a victory mode standing neck-to-neck with Haryana Hammers in the league table. But can they maintain their dominance against Delhi Sultans or will the Dangal perish at the hands of their neighbours? Delhi Sultans would have to go for an all-out attack if they want to register their maiden victory stay in the competition and would have to back their Women players. The match is all set to take place Siri Fort Sports Complex, New Delhi from 7:00 pm onwards. Stay Updated!

Delhi Sultans are yet to register their maiden victory but the road to victory seems to be a heavy task as they have failed to perform in both the matches they have played so far. On the other hand, UP Dangal have managed to create a big impact by winning both the matches they have played against Mumbai Maharathi and NCR Punjab Royals.

Delhi fans would be having high expectations from Aslan Alborov who is the only player winning both the bouts and Sushil Kumar if he wrestles in tonight’s game and also from Haji Aliev. UP Dangal fans would have high expectations from Bekzod Abdurakhmonov, Nitin Kumar and Vinesh Phogat who have won all their bouts against their competitors. Toss would have a big impact on today’s game and we will get to see which player gets blocked. Delhi fans would be disappointed if Double Olympian Sushil Kumar does not play or gets blocked in today’s high profile match.
