tactical and formation front, the hosts would be wondering which side of the unpredictable Wizards turns out on Saturday. The Wizards have been one of the most inconsistent sides in the tournament and had struggled to make through to the last four stage. But every time they had their backs to the wall, the team came up with a performance worthy of champions and their 4-1 victory over league leaders Delhi Waveriders in the last league encounter would have given them the confidence that they can go the distance in the inaugural edition. "We had a wonderful last night. It was Delhi Waveriders' first defeat of the tournament, and obviously we are very positive now. We need to go into semi-final with a positive momentum," Wizards' skipper Raghunath said. "But then, it's semi-final. Ranchi is a good side. Tomorrow, it would be a tough contest. And the team that plays better on the day would make it to the final," Raghunath added. Whether they will achieve that feat would depend on how well they keep their focus and play as a unit.
