#2: Sukesh Hegde
Sukesh emerged as one of the top bargain buys at the player auctions with Gujarat fetching his services for a throw-away sum of Rs 31.50 lakhs. He largely played the second fiddle role to Rahul Chaudhari during his time at the Telugu Titans and now has been entrusted with the task of leading the Gujarat side in the capacity of a captain.
With 209 raid points from his 49 matches, Sukesh is one key force in the attack of the side and will marshal his troops on the mat effectively by example. Sukesh looks to relish the increased responsibility as was evident when he was quoted as saying to Sportstar in an earlier interview, “I am looking to coaches for guidance. As captain for the first time in Pro Kabaddi, I am expected to do my role and also decide for the team. We have the youngest side this season, so my role as captain is extremely crucial."
