Jaipur Pink Panthers: Bengal Warriorz captain Fazel Atrachali shared a heartfelt message for his teammate and star raider Maninder Singh, following their impressive 40-38 win over the Haryana Steelers on Sunday.
Maninder scored 12 points and led his team’s attack from the front, complementing the defensive unit led by the skipper Fazel. Speaking after the match, the Iranian remarked, “What sets Maninder apart is his commitment. In my decade-long experience, I've seen many experienced players try to skip practice, but not him. He puts in more effort than anyone else, and is always giving his 100% in the gym, in training, and in matches.”
The Iranian defender also emphasised how rare it is to see players maintain such longevity. “We see many young players, even 20-year-olds, who come for a year or two and then disappear. But Maninder's consistency is a result of his relentless hard work and fitness regimen.”
