They still go into the last leg as Zone B toppers with 13 points.Commenting before the start of the Bengaluru leg, Diler Delhi's Captain, Sunil Jaipal said: "We haven't had the best result in the last two matches but due to strong performances earlier we are in a good position.

The stellar performances of players like Amarjeeth Singh, Venkatesha and raider Abdul Sheikh, have helped Pune in making their way to the top and is currently leading Zone A having earned 16 points with all their league stage matches done.Speaking about their run in the league, Pune Pride's star raider Abdul Sheikh said: "The team has performed extremely well in the league so far and our moral is particularly high after defeating Delhi in our last match, who is a topper of Zone B. We are hopeful to maintain our winning momentum when we play in the semi-finals".The other two semi-finalists, Bangalore Rhinos, and Chennai Challengers have showcased a similar performance with both of them at five wins, one draw, and eleven points in their kitty. Both the teams seemed to struggle in the first leg in Pune but with the advent of the Mysore leg they picked up their game and have been on a winning run for their last three matches.The first day of the leg will witness a face-off between Haryana Heros and Mumbai CheRaje, followed by two matches on day 2, the first one between Bangalore Rhinos and Chennai Challengers and the second one between Zone B topper Diler Delhi and Pondicherry Predators.
