After a stellar Pro Kabaddi Season 6 with U Mumba, Siddharth Desai was billed as the man to watch out for after fetching a record price at the Season 7 auction. However, he has flattered to deceive with the Titans so far, picking up just 28 raid points in his first five games at an average of 5.6.

The Titans started off the game with him being the only Desai on the mat as elder brother Suraj Desai was not named in the starting seven. Starting off strongly, Siddharth once again showed glimpses of his abilities. He picked up five raid points in the first half but also had to spend a considerable amount of time on the bench with other players struggling to register on the scoreboard.

Siddharth, who made a Super 10 on his Pro Kabaddi debut, finally picked up his first of this season with eight minutes to go, getting a touch of Mahender Singh.
