The stage is set for an electrifying finale to the 12th season of the Pro Kabaddi League! Dabang Delhi K.C. and Puneri Paltan, undoubtedly the league’s most formidable teams, are primed to clash for ultimate glory at the Thyagaraj Indoor Stadium this Friday.
Their rivalry this season has been nothing short of spectacular. In their most recent encounter, Qualifier 1 on Monday, Dabang Delhi, the champions from the eighth edition, demonstrated incredible composure. They narrowly defeated Paltan 6-4 in a tie-breaker after the match ended in a thrilling 34-34 draw. Under the astute leadership of Ashu Malik, the Delhi squad has consistently proven their resilience and ability to shine under pressure.
Not to be outdone, Puneri Paltan showcased remarkable fighting spirit, bouncing back powerfully in Qualifier 2. They secured their spot in the final – a third appearance in four seasons – with a convincing victory over the Telugu Titans. With Aslam Inamdar at the helm, Paltan boasts a meticulously balanced roster, capable of challenging any opponent.
Given that all three previous matches between these titans have gone down to the wire, requiring a tie-breaker to determine a winner, fans can anticipate yet another fiercely contested and unpredictable encounter.
Dabang Delhi’s head coach, Joginder Narwal, expressed immense pride in his team’s journey. “Our journey to the final is a testament to our collective belief and unwavering unity,” Narwal stated. “Every player, from our rising stars to our seasoned veterans, has risen to the occasion. Their determination in overcoming challenges and remaining a cohesive unit makes me truly believe this team is destined for success.”
