Defending champions Haryana Steelers head into PKL 2025 looking to do what only one other franchise (Patna Pirates) has done — retain their Pro Kabaddi crown. Led by captain Jaideep Dahiya and defensive ace Rahul Sethpal, and with the astute Manpreet Singh at the helm, the Steelers carry forward the core of their championship-winning squad.
The blockbuster signing of MVP winner Naveen Kumar (Rs 1.20 crore) injects extra firepower into their already potent attack, alongside the likes of Vinay, Shivam Anil Patare and Vishal Tate. While the departure of Iranian star all-rounder Mohammadreza Shadloui leaves a gap in the left corner, Haryana’s youthful defensive line-up is eager to step up and show their mettle. Energetic, resilient and balanced, the Steelers are back as clear favourites to add a second title in 2025.
