Players to watch out for

Patna released Sajin Chandrasekar, a defender, prior to the PKL 10 auctions. But the franchise signed him back using their FBM card.Last season, Sajin did not have a very successful campaign. Out of 13 games, he could only muster 10 tackle points. He has only played a brief amount of Pro Kabaddi, yet he already has 45 tackle points.In terms of defence, the Steelers’ two main scorers over the past two seasons have been the cover tandem of Mohit and Jaideep. Mohit will play a crucial part as well. The cover pair, who has shown to be among the most potent in the Pro Kabaddi League, will be crucial to the team.
