PKL 11: Haryana Steelers claim stellar win over Tamil Thalaivas in Pro Kabaddi 2024
Haryana Steelers keep up the top spot in the PKL 11 points table.
The Haryana Steelers overcame a tough challenge in Pro Kabaddi League (PKL 11) but eventually went home with all five points after beating the Tamil Thalaivas 36-29 in Match 59 of PKL 11 at the Noida Indoor Stadium on Sunday. It was Mohammadreza Shadloui’s seven points — including a High 5 — that grabbed the win for the Haryana Steelers in what was a close contest to the very end.
A cautious approach defined the first half of the game, with both the Tamil Thalaivas and the Haryana Steelers relying on Do-Or-Die raids to secure early points in PKL 11. While Moein Shafaghi and Vishal Chahal maintained their momentum from Saturday night, Vinay shifted the momentum with a Super Raid that captured both Amir Hossein Bastami and Nitesh Kumar. The Haryana Steelers then took the lead, ten minutes into the game, following a successful tackle by Rahul Sethpal that removed Vishal Chahal from the match.
