PKL 12: Dabang Delhi's full schedule & squad for Pro Kabaddi 2025

Dabang Delhi will start their campaign against Bengaluru Bulls in PKL 12.
After a strong performance in Season 11, Dabang Delhi once again prepared themselves for Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12). In the auction earlier this year, the franchise made some brilliant decisions and has put together a spectacular squad.
From a sturdy and stable defence to quality raiders, they have managed to excel in all aspects on paper. They released both their primary raiders, Ashu Malik and Naveen Kumar, ahead of the auction. However, they bring back Ashu for Rs 1.90 crore through the Final Bid Match card.
They also recruited experienced defenders such as Fazel Atrachali and Surjeet Singh to provide balance to the team. Although the PKL 8 winners failed to lift the trophy in the previous season, they are a strong contender to win the PKL Season 12 title. Let’s take a look at their full schedule and squad for PKL 12.
Dabang Delhi’s full squad:

The Season 8 winners, Dabang Delhi, are primed for another title run with a star-studded lineup. Ashu Malik continues to be their raiding talisman, while the legendary Fazel Atrachali brings his championship experience to their defense.
The addition of Neeraj Narwal and versatile Arkam Shaikh gives them multiple tactical options.
Raiders: Mohit (right raider), Anil Gurjar, Vijay, Ajinkya Ashok Pawar, Akshit (left raider), Neeraj Narwal, Ashu Malik.
Defenders: Sandeep (left cover), Anurag (left corner), Raman Singh (right corner), Mohit (left cover), Saurabh Nandal (left corner), Gaurav Chhillar (right cover), Surjeet Singh (right cover), Amirhossein Bastami (F) (right corner), Fazel Atrachali (F) (left corner).
