Tamil Thalaivas beat Puneri Paltan: Thalaivas clinch first win of the season, beat Puneri Paltan 36-26
Tamil Thalaivas have been involved in two ties this season (in three matches). Coach J Udaya Kumar will now need to figure a way to ensure they convert these tight games into victories.
Tamil Thalaivas beat Puneri Paltan: In Manjeet and Bhavani Rajput they have two lanky raiders who have impressed in patches. But Thaliavas’ habit of losing momentum towards the closing stages of the match has seen them concede cheap points.
Captain Surjeet Singh will need to marshal his defence well against Puneri Paltan’s raiding trio of Aslam Inamdar, Mohit Goyat and Pankaj Mohite. The three youngsters have been the backbone of coach Anup Kumar’s plans with Rahul Chaudhari not being given the full 40 minutes on the mat. With one win in three matches, Puneri Paltan are at the bottom of the PKL season 8 points table.
