Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5 : Patna Pirates' predicted starting line up

#6 Sachin Shingade

A resolute Sachin will add steel to Patna's defence

It’s hard to believe that season 4’s fifth best raider ended up second from bottom in the team’s points table. It throws light on the kind of defender that Sachin Shingade is. A no nonsense left cover, Sachin loves slugging it out on the mat. You’d be hard-pressed to find a defender more tenacious than him. A resolute Sachin will add steel to this Patna side and keep things tight.

#7 Satish

The choice of selecting the player who will occupy the final spot in this new look Patna team will be a hard one for the coach. Given the fact that apart from the first four players mentioned in this list, the others are relatively inexperienced in the league. As a result, debutant, Satish could well occupy the right corner position for Patna. Having never been part of the league, he will face a mammoth task to keep up with the pace and intensity, week in week out.
