Pro Kabaddi League Season 5: 5 players Bengal Warriors will pin their hopes on

Bengal Warriors
If they can manage a top four finish this season, it will go a long way in staving off the ignominy of being the wooden spoon holder last season

#3 Maninder Singh

Maninder Singh

Maninder lit up the first season with his innovative raids that defenders had no answers to

130 raid points and then nothing. Maninder Singh's story is one of the most curious ones in the brief little history of Pro Kabaddi League. Singh was THE man for Jaipur Pink Panthers when they lifted the trophy in the first season. He even got his team 8 points in the all important final against the favourites U Mumba. But post that blast, Singh vanished and it has been 3 seasons now that the Pro Kabaddi League jamboree has gone without seeing him.

This season, though, the Punjabi is back and while questions hover around his effectiveness after three years of no Pro Kabaddi action, if he can dazzle the PKL stage once again in partnership with Jang Kun Lee, it will at least make a lovely Bollywood movie script, even if it can't take Bengal Warriors the distance. That being said, a lot of eyes will be on Maninder due to his story.
