PKL 8 Pro Kabaddi – Telugu Titans vs Patna Pirates: It is hard to fault the Titans for their poor season considering all the injuries the team has suffered. Experienced Siddharth Desai and Rohit Kumar have been big losses while young stars like Rajnish have also missed matches due to fatigue. They are at the bottom of the points table and will be playing the remainder of the season for pride.
This can actually work in favour of the Titans who have nothing to lose. Youngsters such as Rajnish, Adarsh T, and Ankit Beniwal should use this as a chance to showcase their talent on the grandest stage. And there will be no bigger opportunity than the match against three-time champions Patna Pirates, who enter the contest after a week’s rest.
Telugu Titans vs Patna Pirates: The men in green have been rock solid in their defence in Season 8. While the corners Mohammadreza Shadloui and Sunil have won the plaudits, their covers Sajin C and Neeraj Kumar have been equally effective. Coach Ram Mehar Singh’s rejuvenated team will most likely have the services of Monu Goyat again who was out injured in their previous outings. Patna will be the favourites to win but Kabaddi is a game known for its constant surprises.
