Hello folks, welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of Match 17 of Pro Kabaddi 2022 that will see the Haryana Steelers take on Jaipur Pink Panthers!

The Steelers have made a commanding start to the season by notching up wins in both of their matches, while the Panthers bounced back with a win after a defeat in their opening clash of the tournament. 

While Manjeet has led the Steelers on the offensive front, the Panthers have relied on Arjun Deshwal for a bulk of the raid points, with 'Poster Boy' Rahul Chaudhari yet to hit his straps this season. 

Steelers' cover combination of Jaideep-Mohit has also worked well for the Manpreet Singh-coached side, and they will be banked on to keep the Deshwal threat at bay. 

A lot to look forward to as both sides look to keep up the winning momentum - and to bring you all the live action today, a very warm welcome to the coverage from Prasen Moudgal!
