The First Southern derby of Pro Kabaddi season eight is on the cards on the very first day of the league. Surjeet's Tamil Thalaivas take on Gurjinder's Telugu Titans...
The Tamil Thalaivas have been the surprise package in this season so far. They have won all four matches in their kabaddi opener and look like the team to beat at the moment. The Telugu Titans, on the other hand, have one win and three losses to start out this year's league.
Strategy corner
Both franchises are led by two tactically sound players, who can turn the match around with their gameplay. C Arun and Rohit Kumar will be leading the charge for Tamil Thalaivas while Telugu Titans have all-rounders like Rishank Devadiga and Ajay Thakur.
Must Watch Players
Telugu Titans' Ajay Thakur: Ajay Thakur is arguably one of the best raiders in this season of PKL so far. He is the highest point-scorer in the Pro Kabaddi 2018 with an average of 17.5 points per game. He is also the most successful raider in terms of raid points as he has picked up 28 raid points out of 35 raids. Thakur, who scored a 12-point raid in Titans' last match against Gujarat Fortunegiants, will be hungry for more points as his team battles Tamil Thalaivas at home on Friday.
Live Streaming
All the matches are expected to be broadcast on the Star Sports Network on television. You can also tune in to Disney+Hotstar for live streaming.
