PKL 12 Highlights: Bengaluru Bulls beat Jaipur Pink Panthers; Puneri Paltan get better of Tamil Thalaivas

It is the opening night of the Delhi leg of Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12). Delhi fans will get to witness a clash between two former champions, with Bengaluru Bulls taking on Jaipur Pink Panthers.

It will be a cracker of a contest with the all-important two points. Both teams will have a common concern, which is the form & fitness of their primary raider.

Akash Shinde has been in and out of the Bengaluru Bulls side due to poor form, while Nitin Dhankar’s injury has become a major concern for the Pink Panthers. Two Iranian star raiders, Alireza Mirzaeian and Ali Samadi, will be in action in this match.

It will be interesting to see if the dominance of Iranians will continue or the primary raiders will make a strong comeback.
