Sukesh has been able to play his own game and marshal his troops on the mat effectively in the capacity of a skipper.
Fazel Atrachali [Left Corner Defender]
The Iranian in the corner position is a lethal with his blocks and holds and will be a major hurdle for the Pune raiders.

Sunil Kumar [Right Cover Defender]
Alongside Parvesh Bhainswal, Sunil forms a strong cover combination in the defence which will not be easy to penetrate.
Abozar Mighani [Right Corner Defender]
Manning the other corner on the mat, this Iranian has been as effective as his compatriot in executing key tackles.
Parvesh Bhainswal [Left Cover Defender]
