The sixth edition of PKL is all set to kick-off from today in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The sweet smell of thrill is in the air as India's biggest league is back with a bang. From all over India, twelve teams will compete for the trophy.

The format of the matches as going to be pretty similar to that of the prior season. Teams will get divided into two zones - A and B. The three-months long league will come to an end on the 5th of January.

Bengaluru Bulls is based in Bengaluru, Karnataka. The team was led by Rohit Kumar for Season 5 and coached by Randhir Singh. The team is owned by Kosmik Global Media. Bulls play their home matches at the Kanteerava Indoor Stadium in Bangalore.

Not a very successful team, Bengaluru has some admirable players. Now that the league starts in less than 24 hours, let's see what factors might help the team to clinch the trophy:

#1 A wizard named Rohit Kumar

Kumar was the first player to score 30 points in a VIVO Pro Kabaddi match when he picked up 32 points against U.P. Yoddha in Season 5

The mojo, peerless player Rohit Kumar will be seen leading Bengaluru Bulls from the front in the upcoming season. He was also a part of the Title-winning Indian team at the Kabaddi Masters in Dubai and put up a good show there as well.

Rohit Kumar established himself as a star performer in his debut season with Patna Pirates as he scored 109 points and was awarded the MVP of Season 3. After being a pirate for one season, he shifted to the Bull's squad.

Kumar was the first player to score 30 points in a VIVO Pro Kabaddi match when he picked up 32 points against U.P. Yoddha in Season 5. He was retained by Bangalore's franchise for the sixth season. With his magical and intricate skills, Rohit can make his team jump up to the top.

#2 A plethora of fine young players

Players like Mahender Singh, Harish Naik, Pawan Sehrawat, Ashish Kumar and Rohit did an excellent job last season

There are some pre-eminent young players on the squad. Players like Mahender Singh, Harish Naik, Pawan Sehrawat, Ashish Kumar and Rohit did an excellent job last season.

Bengaluru Bulls is famous for giving the league some extremely talented players in the past. Ajay Kumar (Gujarat Fortune Giants) and Pardeep Narwal are just a few names.

Well, for the forthcoming season, we might expect a great show from the youngsters. Rohit Kumar is a great captain and under his guidance, the team is capable of winning the league.

#3 The urge to prove themselves

They do have a good team but the key is to avoid those silly mistakes to conquer the trophy

The past of Bulls has not been a great one. Yes, they played runner-ups match against Patna in season 1 and the finals against U Mumba in season 2, but due to the presence of splendid players like Manjeet Chillar and Ajay Thakur.

Since the past few seasons, Bengaluru Bulls are almost around the bottom of the table. The thing is that despite starting strongly, they fail to perform as the matches proceed towards the middle of the league.

Last season, Ravinder Pahal was forbidden to play a few matches as he got a red card for arguing with the umpire. They do have a good team but the key is to avoid those silly mistakes to conquer the trophy.

#4 The influence of Randhir Singh

Coach Randhir Singh is well known for introducing new players to the league and shaping them into champions. Pardeep Narwal is one of his best finds so far. He has been with the Bulls since the very beginning.

Singh, who was awarded the Arjuna Award in 1997, knows his players very well. Randhir was a member of the Indian team which won the Gold medal at the Asian games, South-Asian games, and the Asian championship. His guidance will be a gem for the team.

#5 Experience can do wonders

Bengaluru Bulls have an impressive array of players. A nice mix of both young blood and experience is there. They have Rohit Kumar, Kashiling Adake, Jasmer Gulia, and Dong Ju Hong as some brilliant players.

We have witnessed in the past that experience plays a very crucial role, overshadowing the skills. The experienced ones on the team have been playing since the beginning of the league, which will eventually help them to understand the tactics better. Well, get ready for the Panga because "Ye bachpan ka khel hai, bacchon ka nahi!"
