In these last 6 matches he has taken 7 DoD raids and not been successful in even a single one.  • Haryana will need Monu to continue his tremendous run as they will be up against one of the best defences in the league in Gujarat Fortunegiants.  Top Defensive Teams - PKL 6 Team Name Avg.

PKL 2018, Day 56, Match 1: Gujarat Fortunegiants vs Haryana Steelers   MONU GOYAT WILL LOOK TO CONTINUE GOOD RUN AGAINST GUJARAT’S SUNIL-PARVESH COMBINATION   • Monu Goyat was the costliest player in the auctions ahead of PKL 6. Injuries and form however affected much of his season and he wasn’t able to produce at the level of a lead-raider. • But in the last few games he has looked back to his best and has been in a terrific run of form and is looking to finish the season strong.  • Vikas Kandola has scored more raid points than him this season, but in the last 6 matches it has been Monu Goyat who has been Haryana’s star man.  Haryana Lead Raiders (Last 6 matches) - PKL 6 Raider Monu Goyat Vikas Kandola Mts. 6 6 Raid Pts. 56 40 Super 10s 5 0 Avg.
