With the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2024 season fast approaching, starting on October 18, defending champions Puneri Paltan are preparing to retain their title.

After their historic win in Season 10, where they claimed their first-ever trophy by defeating Haryana Steelers in a thrilling final, the Paltan have taken steps to reinforce their squad for the new season.

Though they will feel the absence of last season's defensive star, Md. Reza Shadloui, the Paltan have made key acquisitions to ensure they stay competitive. In the PKL 2024 Auction, one of their standout purchases was Ajith V Kumar, bought for INR 66 lakh to add depth to their raiding lineup.

In a rematch of last season's final, Puneri Paltan will begin their title defense against the Haryana Steelers on October 19 in Hyderabad. They will face Dabang Delhi KC in their first game of the Noida leg on November 11 and take on U Mumba on December 3 for their opening game of the Pune leg, which will also be their home leg.

Three cities - Hyderabad, Noida, and Pune will host all matches this season. Therefore, the home fans will be able to witness the defending champions in action.
