Punjab and Delhi meet again after experiencing mixed fortunes in the week. Delhi followed up their win over the Marshalls on Day 1 with a 27-19 triumph over Mumbai Tennis Masters on Tuesday. Punjab, on the other hand, failed to bounce back from their opening day defeat to Delhi and lost 27-21 to Mumbai at home on Thursday.
According to the tournament rules, the two teams which win the highest number of games in their respective groups will play each other in the final. Delhi now look on course to making it to the finale with a total score of 52, while Punjab might need a mini-miracle of sorts in the next two outings to make it out of the group, as their current score is only 40. Mumbai, meanwhile, are on 46.
Fans will get to see Marshalls' talisman Leander Paes in action in singles after a long time, as he has replaced Greg Rusedski in the legend's category for this tie.
