The Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) Season 12 officially made its much-anticipated return to the Pink City, as the league’s second leg kicks off at the iconic SMS Indoor Stadium. Following an electrifying opening in Visakhapatnam that concluded on September 11, the action now shifts to Jaipur, where fans are gearing up for a fortnight of edge-of-the-seat kabaddi drama running from September 12 to 27.
For the passionate kabaddi supporters of Rajasthan, the return of the league marks a significant moment. Jaipur last hosted PKL in January 2024, and the excitement is palpable as local favourites and two-time champions Jaipur Pink Panthers step onto home turf once again. With the vibrant atmosphere of the SMS Indoor Stadium and an enthusiastic home crowd, the Panthers will look to harness the energy and make a strong statement in front of their loyal fans.
“We’ve had a solid start to the season – two wins already and two very close games that could have gone our way,” said Nitin Rawal, captain of the Jaipur Pink Panthers. “The team is looking balanced and confident. Playing at our home ground gives us a special boost of energy, and I know our fans will turn up in big numbers to back us. Their support means everything, and we want to repay that faith by giving our 100 percent on the mat and carrying forward this momentum.”
PKL Season 12 has already shaped up to be one of the most competitive editions in recent memory. Teams like Puneri Paltan, Dabang Delhi K.C., U Mumba, and Telugu Titans have displayed early dominance, setting the tone for a tightly contested league phase.
The Jaipur leg opens with a blockbuster clash between the hosts Jaipur Pink Panthers and Bengaluru Bulls. Bulls' skipper Yogesh Dahiya acknowledged the unpredictable nature of this season, saying, “This season has shown that every match is unpredictable, and that keeps us motivated to fight harder. We’re confident that if we play with discipline and teamwork, we can turn the pressure into opportunity.”
The second encounter of the evening will see Tamil Thalaivas go head-to-head with Bengal Warriorz in what is expected to be another thrilling contest.
