PKL 12: Where & how to watch Tamil Thalaivas vs U Mumba, Match 5 of Pro Kabaddi 2025

Tamil Thalaivas will look to continue their winning momentum against U Mumba.

On the first Sunday of the Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12), an exciting match will take place between Tamil Thalaivas and U Mumba. Thalaivas have been in the news since the auction, where they bought Pawan Sehrawat and Arjun Deshwal. Both of them performed brilliantly in the first match.

Tamil Thalaivas will look to repeat the same story against a defensively strong U Mumba. On the other hand, the Season two champions will rely on Sunil Kumar and Parvesh Bhainswal to take care of their defence.

Players to watch out for

Tamil Thalaivas

Arjun Deshwal has started from where he left off last season. His Super 10 on the opening night is a boost to the Thalaivas’ team, and they would want the Raid Machine to continue scoring points. U Mumba would be wary of Arjun as he made his PKL debut for them.

U Mumba

Ajit Chouhan impressed everyone with his consistency last year, and he will have to replicate it this year as well if U Mumba have to qualify.

The left raider would want to do well against Thalaivas, as their defence is not their strongest point. The management has trusted Ajit to be the lead raider, and the 20-year-old would want to do the same.

Possible starting 7

U Mumba – Lokesh Ghosaliya, Amirmohammad Zafardanesh, Parvesh Bhainswal, Ajit Chouhan, Sunil Kumar, Aanil Mohan, Rinku Sharma.

Tamil Thalaivas – Arjun Deshwal, Pawan Sehrawat, Suresh Jadhav, Aashish, Nitesh Kumar, Himanshu, Ronak.
