Puneri Paltan have been crowned as champions of PKL Season 10. The runners-up of Season 9 have gone one step further to clinch the coveted silverware, a year later. The Puneri Paltan team was assembled to near perfection, as the title-favourites at the start of the campaign, did actually win the trophy at the end of the road.
Haryana Steelers, who featured in their first-ever PKL Semi-final (and, of course, PKL Final), emerged second-best in Hyderabad. The final was a close encounter, which not many had expected before the start of the showdown. Puneri Paltan beat their opponents by 3 points, to win the final by 28-25.
How many PKL Titles have Puneri Paltan won?
The PKL 2024 is the first-ever PKL title for Puneri Paltan.
The Pune-based outfit have finally managed to get their hands on the Pro Kabaddi League trophy. It is the first time that the Puneri Paltan have won the PKL title. In ten years of existence, the Paltan struggled to make their mark in the initial years.
After finishing at the bottom of the league for the first two seasons, the Paltan made a comeback to finish third in the third season. Their best finish to beat the third-place finish, came only in Season 9. Last year, the Aslam Inamdar-led side finished second to Jaipur Pink Panthers.
It has taken ten-long years for the Paltan to conquer the league, and make it their own. The patience and the hardwork all seems so worth it, for Shri BC Ramesh and his men.
