The 33-year-old raider, who was integral to the Bengal Warriors last season, spoke about his retention and continuing his journey in the league with the team.

“Before the auction, I had faith that I would be part of the Bengal Warriors, and even my family had a similar inkling. I have played for Bengal Warriors for a while and it is now my home team. The atmosphere within the team is always great, which allows me to express myself fully during the matches. This time we will look at bettering our performance from last season and with the new team, will look at taking up the challenge for the coveted trophy,” said Maninder.
