Sunil Kumar could yet again have a memorable season along with Parvesh Bhainswal.

Sunil Kumar was handed the captaincy of the Gujarat Fortunegiants in Season six after putting up a fine performance in the fifth season of the Pro Kabaddi League. Coach Manpreet Singh's pick proved to be a success his team ended as runners-up in last season.

The partnership of Sunil Kumar-Parvesh Bhainswal succeeded in leading Gujarat to 17 wins in their group stage last season while coach Manpreet Singh had an impact on getting the best out of Sunil Kumar, both as a captain and a defender.

Sunil Kumar stood out with much courage and led the team with composure which helped him innovate his defensive techniques and form a deadly cover partnership with Parvesh Bhainswal that took his team to the final clash.

Apart from leading the team to the finals, Kumar was one of the best right cover defenders of Season six with 76 tackle points in 25 matches at an average of 3.04 tackle points.

With the youngester exhibiting his skill while leading, Manpreet Singh could once again have Sunil Kumar as Gujarat's captain for the upcoming edition of the Pro Kabaddi League.
