Pro Kabaddi 2019: Predicting the starting 7 for UP Yoddha

UP Yoddha's squad for VIVO Pro Kabaddi 2019

Left Corner: Sachin Kumar

The team retained Sachin Kumar ahead of the auction.

Hailing from Uttar Pradesh, Sachin Kumar established himself as the rock-solid defender in the left corner and provided decent support to Nitesh Kumar.

Sachin Kumar can execute dives from the left corner position. He also provides timely assists with his waist pulls for the cover defence. He is a defensive allrounder but can also be handy to the team in the do or die raids.

Sachin played his first Pro Kabaddi match when he was with Bengaluru Bulls in Season 5. There he did not receive enough chances to prove his worth. He joined UP Yoddha for season 6 and scored 49 tackle points in 34 matches with three High 5s to his name.

Sachin Kumar will yet again form a corner partnership with Nitesh Kumar and will aid the defence with some consistent performances in the upcoming tournament.
