The 22nd game of the ongoing Pro Kabaddi League 2025 (PKL 2025) will be played between Patna Pirates and Puneri Paltan. The Puneri Paltan vs Patna Pirates match is scheduled to be played on Monday (September 8) at the Vishwanadh Sports Club, Vizag.
The two teams have started their respective campaigns in a very contrasting fashion. While Puneri Paltan have been one of the best teams in the early stages of the competition, Patna Pirates are the only team who are yet to get off the mark.
With an impressive three wins from four games, the Pune-based outfit is currently at the top of the PKL 2025 points table. They began their campaign with a win over Bengaluru Bulls before beating Gujarat Giants and Bengaluru Bulls. Their winning start finally came to an end with a defeat against Dabang Delhi.
On the other hand, Patna Pirates are languishing at the bottom of the points table after losing all of their three games so far. Their campaign started with two close losses against UP Yoddhas and Jaipur Pink Panthers. In their last outing, they suffered a defeat against Bengaluru Bulls and will be desperate to win the upcoming match to open their account.
