PKL 2024: The commencement of Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) season 11 has created a buzz among the fans. Among the teams looking to win the coveted PKL title this year is the Puneri Paltan. In a bid to maintain consistency and build on their previous year’s winning performance, the team has carefully retained some of their key players.
Puneri Paltan has retained their captain Aslam Inamdar, who was also the top raider of the team in PKL 10. He played a pivotal role in making Paltan the PKL champion for the first time.
Along with Aslam, the franchise retained his raiding partners, Mohit Goyat and Pankaj Mohite. Mohit and Pankaj performed well in the PKL 10 and were instrumental in the team’s success.
Under the guidance of coach BC Ramesh, the franchise has strategically retained core members of their defence. In the PKL 11, Gaurav Khatri, Abinesh Nadarajan, and Sanket Sawant will be in the defensive wall of Puneri Paltan. They have also added Ajith Kumar and Mohit along with other talented players at the PKL 11 player auction.
