PKL 2024: Full Squad of Telugu Titans in PKL 11
The Telugu Titans' journey in the last edition of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) left much to be desired. Despite a few bright spots, notably the exceptional individual performance of Pawan Sehrawat, the team struggled to make a significant impact on the points table. The overall performance was a clear indication that the team lacked cohesion and depth, which ultimately reflected in their standings.
As the next season approaches, one of the primary concerns for the Titans’ management will be how to inspire and motivate the players. With the auction looming large, the management faces a critical challenge in making the right choices. Selecting the right players will be crucial, as the burden of expectations on this franchise is immense. Making poor decisions in the auction could lead to another disappointing season, something the team and its fans cannot afford.
The big question on everyone’s mind is whether the Telugu Titans will decide to retain or bid for Pawan Sehrawat in the upcoming PKL 11 auction. Sehrawat’s incredible talent and performance in the previous season make him a highly valuable player. However, building a team around a single player is risky, especially in a sport as dynamic as kabaddi. The management will need to weigh their options carefully, considering both the strengths and the weaknesses that Sehrawat brings to the table.
