Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5: 5 talking points from Day 29 of PKL 5

#5 Oshtorak's Super tackles clinches the deal

Hadi Oshtorak was the game changer for U Mumba on the night against Haryana Steelers

There was frustration visible on every face that supported U Mumba as the team allowed the game to slip away in the early part of the second half due to poor defending. The errors just didn’t stop coming with Renjith and Surender being the chief culprits. With Steelers tying the score in the 29th minute, U Mumba made a desperate move and brought on Hadi Oshtorak as a substitution. And, in hindsight, that proved to be a masterstroke.

The Iranian, once a big name on the PKL stage, is no more a threat as feared as Fazel Atrachali or Abozar Mighani. But Wednesday was the night when he decided to remind PKL fans of his prime. In his two tackle attempts, he effected two super tackles and took the game away from the Steelers who failed to recover from those blows and succumbed to a defeat eventually.
