Pro Kabaddi League 2022
Kabaddi was long seen as a sport coming from rural India, slowly fading into antiquity and dwarfed by other games, especially cricket. But with the launch of Pro Kabbadi League, people’s opinion has drastically changed towards this game.
Which used to be a quaint pastime of earlier ages, has now become an eminent game with leviathan media house broadcasting, revamped rules, and lucrative awards.
This game is very appealing to the viewers due to its simplicity. In this game, the raider enters the opponent team’s territory and needs to tap the opponent and come back to its own yard, then it will be counted as a point.
That’s why the League has become very successful in India, especially in North India, and encouraged many young players to adopt Kabaddi as a profession.
So the much-awaited PKL Season 9 Auction will be held for 2 days from 5th to 6th August 2022 in Mumbai. A total of 12 franchisees have participated in the auction. The full list of sold players has been out of both domestic and overseas players.
The Pro kabaddi starting date is 11 November 2022 as announced by Mashal Sports. All the matches of Season 9 will be played in different states of India keeping in mind the safety of players in COVID 19. The Schedule will be announced in a while, we will update it just after the official declaration.
