The stage is set for an electrifying semi-final 1 in the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) season 10. Puneri Paltan vs Patna Pirates battle will be held on Wednesday, February 28th. The match will be played at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad, and the stakes couldn't be higher as both teams vie for a spot in the coveted final.

Puneri Paltan dominated the league stage, showcasing their power by finishing as table toppers. They secured a whopping 96 points, winning 17 out of their 22 matches and facing only 2 defeats. This impressive performance shows their unwavering determination and strategic gameplay. Having finished runners-up last year, the Pune-based team is hungry for the championship this time around.

Captain Aslam Inamdar will hold the onus of the raiding department. Along with him, Pankaj Mohite, Mohit Goyat and Akash Shinde will provide stability on the offensive front. In the defence, Mohammadreza Shadlou will lead the charge from the left-corner. At the right-corner position, we will see Gaurav Khatri.

On the other hand, Patna Pirates, the three-time champions, embarked on a slightly different journey. They finished the league stage in 6th place. However, they displayed their fighting spirit by overcoming 3rd-position Dabang Delhi in a nail-biting Eliminator 1, securing their place in the semi-finals.

Captain Sachin Tanwar will lead the team's raiding department. However, he is not a lone raider. Sudhakar, Sandeep and Manjeet are also in sublime form and can take their team to victory. The defence will mostly rely on experienced Krishan Dhull and Ankit Jaglan.
