PKL 12: Puneri Paltan's full schedule & squad for Pro Kabaddi 2025

Puneri Paltan will start their campaign against Bengaluru Bulls in PKL 12.

Puneri Paltan have been the story of the Pro Kabaddi League in its decade-long history. Puneri had an average Season 11. They started well but lost momentum in the middle of the season and were eliminated before the playoffs. However, they have taken some positives from last season and rectified their mistakes from the previous season through retention.

They made some crucial additions to their squad. Ajay Thakur has been promoted as the head coach of Puneri Paltan in PKL 12. He joined the Paltan’s coaching staff mid-season in PKL 11 and made a decent impression.

The Arjuna Awardee led the Paltan’s management in the auction and created a balanced side to begin the proceedings for the upcoming season. Moreover, they also bought some talented players during the auction, giving them a good chance to replicate their PKL 10 success.

Let’s take a look at their full schedule and squad for PKL 12.
