The 18th match of the ongoing Pro Kabaddi League 2025 (PKL 2025) will see Tamil Thalaivas taking on Gujarat Giants. The Tamil Thalaivas vs Gujarat Giants match is scheduled to be played on Saturday (September 9) at the Vishwanadh Sports Club, Vizag.
Both the teams have struggled to make an impact this season and will be eyeing a crucial win in the upcoming match. Tamil Thalaivas opened their campaign with a 38-35 win over Telugu Titans. However, they suffered a defeat in the very next game against U Mumba and will be desperate to return to winning ways.
On the other hand, Gujarat Giants are yet to open their account even after playing two matches. They faced U Mumba in their tournament-opener and suffered a defeat in the tie-breaker. In their next game, they faced Puneri Paltan and suffered an embarrassing 22-point defeat.
