After a dominating win against
Dabang Delhi in their first match, Telegu Titans looked set for another
comfortable victory over Pro Kabaddi League season 1 last place finishers
Puneri Paltan. But this was not the case as the Titans got more than a tough match
as they trailed 13-14 against the Puneri Paltan in the 1st half.
This fight was only limited to the
1st half as the Titans’ skipper Rahul Chaudhari brought around a
great revival for his side with his super raids and smart tackles earning his
team a total of 14 points. He also inflicted 2 all-outs on the Puneri Paltans
and was aptly supported by the 20 year old Deepak Hudda in attack. Wazir Singh,
captain of the Puneri Paltan, was the lone fighter for his side earning 7 raid
points but they were not even close to enough as Telegu Titans won as the score
read 45-24.
Having read an interview of Paltan’s
coach Ashok Shinde, an Arjuna awardee and multiple gold medal winner for India,
he appeared to be mildly optimistic about his team’s chances in Pro Kabaddi
League 2015. Puneri Paltan have also increased their squad size from 15 to 25
members with the inclusion of experienced players. It will be very heartening
to see Puneri Paltan improve vastly on their Pro Kabaddi League season 1
performance.
