Pro Kabaddi 2017 Season 5: 5 reasons why Puneri Paltan can win their maiden title

#3: Experienced campaigners to guide the team

Cheralathan won the PKL title with the Patna Pirates in Season 4

The Puneri Paltan think tank made some ideal buys at the player auctions in May and these included the likes of Dharmaraj Cheralathan, Rajesh Mondal and Girish Ernak; all of whom have years of experience by their side in order to guide the team.

Cheralathan, the 42-year old defender has the knack of playing in either of the corner positions and has amassed over 150 defence points. He will be supported by Girish Ernak who plied his trade for the Bengal Warriors and has over 100 tackle points to his credit.

As for Rajesh Mondal, he will assist the attack alongside Deepak Hooda, and look to boost his tally of 156 raid points and thus ensure that the score board keeps ticking for Puneri Paltan.
