Star raiders of Season 7, Pawan Sehrawat and Vikash Khandola, haven’t had the best of the starts in 2021 for the respective teams but that has not stopped their teams from winning.
Pawan Sehrawat did get a Super 10 in Bulls’ against champions Bengal Warriors but his movement on the mat still hasn’t reached the levels we often associate the “high flyer” with. Bulls’ addition of Chandran Ranjit in the auctions have helped them compensate for Pawan’s slow start while South Korean Dong Geon Lee’s heroics in the previous outing might fetch him a spot in the starting 7.

The two were instrumental in Haryana’s first win of the season while the defence looked better with Surender Nada and Mohit regaining form.

The Haryana Steelers will be looking to ride on the momentum after recording their first victory in Pro Kabaddi League Season 8 in Bengaluru on Tuesday. The Steelers, who defeated Telugu Titans 39-37, will take on Bengaluru Bulls on Thursday.
Meetu, who scored 12 raid points against the Titans, expressed that the team worked on a few aspects before their game against the Telugu side, “It felt really good to record our first victory of the season on Tuesday. We played well in the first two matches as well, but we couldn’t register victories. We worked on a few aspects of our game before our match against Telugu Titans and we pulled off a win.”
The Bulls meanwhile, who have opened with two wins in three games, will hope to close the gap on the top two, with a win on Thursday. After thor opening day defeat, Bengaluru have pulled themselves together to register back to back wins and will hope to do so a against a struggling Haryana outfit.
