Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5: Five reasons why Haryana Steelers can claim the trophy

#3 A mix of young and veteran raiders

Wazir Singh will be responsible for guiding the young raiders on the mat

The team have a variety of raiders to entrust the attacking responsibilities with on the match days, including Deepak Dahiya, Surjeet Singh, and Prashant Rai.

Dahiya offered glimpses of his skills in the past seasons where he amassed 74 raid points from the 26 matches he featured.

Surjeet Singh is a livewire on the mat if he gets going, a rampant raider who has the ability to spearhead the attack for the Steelers. He will look to increase his tally of 101 raid points off 22 matches, in the fifth edition.

Guiding the young guns on the mat will be the experienced campaigner Wazir, who will be looking to make a strong comeback post his sporadic appearances in the last couple of seasons. When speaking to Firstpost, Mohit Chhillar was quoted as saying, "Wazir Singh has been a top player. I think he will be even more motivated after missing out on the last two seasons, and perhaps not many teams would pay a lot of attention to him. So he is going to be a trump card for us."
