Pro Kabaddi League 2018: 5 outstanding stats for Telugu Titans so far

The VIVO Pro Kabaddi League is all set to get underway from the 7th of October in Chennai. 12 teams from all across India will compete against each other to clinch the title of Pro Kabaddi Season 6.

Tamil Thalaivas are playing hosts this time. The format of the forthcoming season is going to be as same as that of the fifth edition. The three-month long league will come to an end on the 5th of January.

Telugu Titans is a team representing Hyderabad. The franchise is owned by Srinivas Sreeramaneni. The team was led and mentored by Poster boy Rahul Chaudhari and coach Naveen Kumar. Titans play their home matches at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium, Hyderabad.

Titans played the season 2 semi-finals but ended up as the runners-up after beating Patna Pirates. They also played the semis in season 4 but came fourth after losing the deal from U Mumba.

In the season 6 auctions, the team management played their cards well (literally) as they used the FBM to bring back crorepati Rahul Chaudhari for a hefty sum of Rs 129 lakhs. Kilaru Jagmohan will be coaching them in season 6.

With less than one week left for the Panga to unfold, here are some excellent stats from Telugu Titans:

#1 Hey, they have the best raider of kabaddi!

Duh! Rahul is the best player of Pro Kabaddi League

Rahul Chaudhari, the poster boy of Pro Kabaddi, is undoubtedly the best raider of the league. He has a total of 710 points to his name. He also achieved the milestone of 700 points last season, which is massive.

Rahul Chaudhari started his PKL career as a mere player from Telugu Titans but who knew that his stars had some great surprises for him.

From a local player to being the second costliest player in the history of PKL auctions and representing team India internationally, Rahul has advanced a long way. He is also the table topper for scoring the most number of Super Tens and Successful raids. Wonderful, isn't it?

#2 Season 2 was a blast for the Titans' army

Season 2 was the best season for Telugu Titans

Season 2 was almost Christmas for Telugu Titans, full of gifts. They were at their level best during that time. They scored the most number of points, most numbers of raid points and also was the team to inflict the most number of all-outs.

In the runners-up match, they dominated Patna Pirates with the score 34-26 at the end. It was an impressive match for the Titans' army. Well, there's always a chance if one strives hard. Well, let's see what season 6 has packed in for them.

#3 They ended up at fourth place in the fourth season

The score at the end was 35-40 in Pune's

favour

Just like the second season, the fourth one was also a success for Telugu Titans. They qualified for the semi-finals but did not get a chance to play against the Pirates in the finals. They were defeated by Jasvir Singh's Jaipur Pink Panthers.

For the runner-up match, they had to face off Puneri Paltan. Although it was not a great experience for them because they lost the match, being one of the top four teams in the league where competition had no limits, was great. The score at the end was 35-40 in Pune's favour.

#4 Telegu Titans scored 60 points in a single match!

There was a score difference of 34 points

On a very fine day, Telugu Titans made a humungous record by defeating Manoj Kumar's Puneri Paltan. How awesome was that?

The score at the end of the heated match was 60-24. They played their absolute best that night. Pune's defeat was enough to threaten the other teams.

Deepak Niwas Hooda was the best player of that glorious night. Puneri Paltan conceded the biggest defeat of the tournament by a whole 34 points. The record was later broken by Patna Pirates.

#5 Most number of all-outs inflicted in season 4

Both the

offence

and

defence

were in an impeccable form

Telugu Titans had a great time in season 4. With a few ups and downs, they managed to make it to the semi-finals. Also, they had brilliant players like the raid machine Rahul Chaudhari, nimble Sandeep Narwal, Nilesh Salunkhe, Vishal Bhardwaj and many more.

Both the offense and defense were in an impeccable form. Sure, Titans did not enter the finals, but they definitely were great with the tricks on the kabaddi mat. Fans are already going crazy all over the social media. Be well prepared for the sixth edition, because "Ye Khel nahi hai aasaan!"
