PKL 12: Tamil Thalaivas vs Bengaluru Bulls prediction, possible starting 7, head-to-head & free live stream

Tamil Thalaivas will look to continue their winning momentum against Bengaluru Bulls in PKL 12.

Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12) will witness one of the fascinating rivalries as Tamil Thalaivas and Bengaluru Bulls will fight it out for two points.

Both teams have an unparalleled fan base, and ironically, both teams are grappling with the controversy of releasing their captain in the first phase of the season.

Ankush Rathee is no longer with the Bulls. On the other hand, Tamil Thalaivas released Pawan Sehrawat. News and discussions are going on among fans about Pawan and Ankush.

Thankfully, this has no impact on the players, as both teams have registered wins, and they would like to focus their attention back on the mat.

Players to watch out for

Tamil Thalaivas – Narender Kandola

Tamil Thalaivas have made it to the playoffs only once, and it was on the backdrop of Narender Kandola’s brilliant performance in season nine.

While he went off the radar a bit, the last game saw him take up additional responsibilities to support his skipper, Arjun Deshwal. He would look to improve his game and get closer to his best against the Bulls. A good performance will have a huge impact on the team in the season.

Bengaluru Bulls – Sanjay Dhull

Sanjay Dhull was one of the main reasons Haryana Steelers lifted the title in PKL 11. He was the second-best defender at right cover last year, and that prompted Bulls’ coach BC Ramesh to spend big to get him. It’s a slow start for Sanjay, and he would look to make amends against Arjun Deshwal, against whom he had five unsuccessful tackles when these two last faced off in PKL.

Possible starting 7

Tamil Thalaivas – Arjun Deshwal, Narender Kandola, Sagar Rathee, Aashish, Nitesh Kumar, Himanshu, Ronak.

Bengaluru Bulls – Akash Shinde, Satyappa Mutti, Alireza Mirzaian, Sanjay Dhull, Jitender Yadav, Deepak Sankar, Yogesh Dahiya.

Match Prediction

Tamil Thalaivas will look to continue their winning momentum after a convincing win against Bengal Warriorz. Most importantly, they want to register a win against the Bulls to avoid a collapse like last year.

Season 11 saw them drop from the top of the table to 9th after losing to the Bulls, which took away their momentum. They might edge out the Bulls in this game.
