PKL 10: Can the Telugu Titans gain momentum after their first win of the tournament?
After five straight losses in the tournament, the Telugu Titans have finally found a win at their home stadium in their sixth match of the season. The victory came against the Haryana Steelers by one point. Before that, the Telugu team faced five huge losses, which affected their campaign a lot. They currently stand in the wooden spoon position in the league standings with a win and five losses out of the six matches that they have played. They have seven points and a score difference of -55.
Their probable starting seven for the upcoming home match against the Bengaluru Bulls looks like below:
1. Center: Pawan Kumar Sehrawat
The Telugu Titans' captain and the top raider in the Pro Kabaddi League will play in the center position for his squad. Pawan Kumar Sehrawat got ten points in the squad's first win of the season and now leads the charts in most raid points with 63 so far this season.
2. Left Cover: Ajit Pawar
Ajit Pawar, who is a young defender filled with exceptional skills and talent, took the place of Parvesh Bhainswal in the team and has performed sensationally. He took a record seven points in the last match and was at the peak of his kabaddi game.
3. Right Cover: Omkar R. More
Omkar R. More is an all-rounder who was purchased at auction for INR 9 lakh by the Telugu Titans. Omkar initially played as a raider but is now primarily playing as a defender in this team in PKL season 10.
4. Left Corner: Sandeep Dhull
Sandeep Dhull was an unsold player in the auction but has joined the Telugu Titans camp as a replacement for an injured defender. Sandeep Dhull has proven to every franchise that he still has it, and passing him up at the auction was a tremendous mistake. In the previous match, he recorded a high-five.
5. Right Corner: Mohit
Mohit, another talented defender, will be playing in the right corner position for the Telugu Titans. Mohit scored three very important tackle points in the last game against the Haryana Steelers and showcased his defensive skills on the biggest kabaddi stage.
6. Left In: Rajnish
Rajnish is another player who has been retained by the Telugu Titans and will play second fiddle to Pawan Kumar Sehrawat. This season, Rajnish has not been the raider he was the prior season. Even after seven raids, he scored zero points in the previous encounter.
7. Right In: Prafull Zaware
Prafull Zaware is playing as the third raider in this Telugu Titans squad. Zaware played well in the previous encounter scoring four raid points when the team needed. He gave the required support to Pawan Sehrawat that helped the team gain their first victory of the tournament.
Predicted Starting seven of the Telugu Titans against the Bengaluru Bulls: Pawan Kumar Sehrawat (c), Ajit Pawar, Omkar R, Sandeep Dhull, Mohit, Rajnish, and Prafull Zaware. The Telugu players will be willing to gain momentum from this win and start winning games consecutively from here on.
