Sawai man guard cup

HH Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh: Fresh from their successful campaign in the Chinkara Polo Championship, the Jaipur Polo Team opened the Sawai Man Guard Cup (8 Goals) in fine style with a 7–4 win over Aravali Polo Team at the Rajasthan Polo Club on Wednesday.

The victory was shaped by the commanding partnership of team captain HH Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh of Jaipur and South African star Lance Watson, who combined for five goals – two and three respectively – while alternating seamlessly between attack and defense. Angad Kalaan added a brace, carrying forward his strong form from the Chinkara Polo Championship, to secure a confident start for the Jaipur side.

Aravali Polo Team, meanwhile, had to endure a hard day’s play, managing four goals through Hurr Ali (2), Argentine Juan Martin Juri (1) and Kr. Kuldeep Singh Rathore (1).
