Both teams would look to continue their winning streak.

The first week of the 12th season of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL 12) will conclude with a bang as two top-quality teams will clash in Visakhapatnam.

Dabang Delhi will be testing themselves against a strong Puneri Paltan side. Both sides started their season with wins and would want to continue the good habit. Pune’s new players have blended into the team and performed well.

Their strategy of investing in youngsters and getting the best out of them has paid off once again this season, with Aditya Shinde putting up a stellar show. Delhi have signed legends like Fazel Atrachali and Surjeet Singh, who need no invitation to make an impact. This game promises to be an exciting contest.

Players to watch out for

Puneri Paltan – Gaurav Khatri

Gaurav Khatri is a pivotal cog in Pune’s success wheel. His presence in the right corner makes the raiders think twice before attempting a bonus. He has been their leader in defense and will again be the man in charge to stop Ashu Malik, who was the only raider with 250+ points in the last two seasons.

Dabang Delhi – Fazel Atrachali

Fazel Atrachali has been travelling across teams in PKL, and his new stop is for the season eight champions Dabang Delhi. The first game saw him display his aggressive style of play, as he is not the captain of a PKL side after seven years.

He knows more than a thing about Pune, having led them to a final. He will be the biggest threat to the men in orange.

Possible starting 7

Puneri Paltan – Gaurav Khatri, Aslam Inamdar, Abinesh Nadarajan, Aditya Shinde, Gurdeep Sangwan, Pankaj Mohite, Vishal Bharadwaj.

Dabang Delhi – Fazel Atrachali, Naveen, Saurabh Nandal, Ashu Malik, Surjeet Singh, Neeraj Narwal, Sandeep.

Match Prediction
