Jaipur Pink Panthers will be aiming for a record-equaling third title in the upcoming Pro Kabaddi League 2025 (PKL 2025). They made it to the playoffs last season but could not clinch the title.
The Pink Panthers qualified for the playoffs after finishing the league stage at the sixth spot with 12 wins from 22 games. Following the failure to win the title, they also decided to sack Sanjeev Baliyan, who was their head coach for the past four seasons. Ahead of the new season, they have roped in Narender Redhu as their new head coach.
Redhu plied his trade for Patna Pirates last season and guided them to a runners-up finish. Jaipur Pink Panthers will be hoping that their new head coach guides them to a record-equaling third title this year.
