Waveriders consistency vs Rhinos flair to decide Hero HIL champion

It will be a tussle between Delhi Waveriders' consistency and the flair of Ranchi Rhinos to decide which team will take home the inaugural Hero Hockey India league crown and a prize purse of Rs 2.5 crore on Sunday.

The two teams booked a date in the summit clash in contrasting fashion with the Rhinos outplaying Uttar Pradesh Wizards 4-2 in the first semi-final, while Waveriders requiring a 68th minute strike from Norris Jones to seal a 3-1 victory over Jaypee Punjab Warriors on Saturday.

On current form, the Waveriders would definitely start as favourites having beaten the Rhinos in two of their games.
