The defense has the ever-reliable Fazel Atracheli, who has countryman Abozar Mighani in support alongsideAManoj Kumar and Parvesh Bhainswal. The raiding department will need to step up as Sukesh will count on the support of Rakesh Narwal, Mahendra Rajput and Sachin Kumar.

U Mumba, on the other hand boast of one of the strongest raiding unit in the league – Anup Kumar, Kashiling Adake and Shabeer Bapu.

Suresh Kumar, Kuldeep Singh and Surinder Singh will man the defense line for U Mumba.
