PANGA GETS BIGGER


In last few years Pro Kabaddi has played a big role in promoting our very own sport. Thanks to PKL we re-remembered the names of our national kabaddi heroes and could keep an eye on the future of this game. PKL managed to divert people’s attention back towards Kabaddi. In the 4 seasons so far, we have witnessed many nail biting encounters and brilliant matches. To fulfil our daily dose of excitement and to give us some more kabaddi, Pro Kabaddi is coming back with brand new season.
On the 28th of July, the season 5 of PKL is starting. This season is promised to be bigger and better than earlier seasons. This year 4 new teams will be participating in the contest. Gujarat Fortunegiants, Tamil Thalaivas, Haryana Steelers and UP Yodhas are the new teams. These new teams are the reason we won’t be seeing the team combinations we know. The players were auctioned again and the old teams are shuffled. This will make it hard for players, as they need to escape their old team habits and tune-in with new team members. So this season is as good as 1st season, where teams struggled to work in harmony. Team that will reach to perfect co-ordination earliest, holds the best chance to win the title.
What really makes this season more challenging is the new format of the tournament. Unlike old seasons, this year teams will be divided into the 2 ZONES of 6 teams each. Every team will be fighting 3 times with the every other team of their zone. Moreover, the teams will face each team of other zone ones, in the ‘Inter-Zonal Challenge Week’. All this action will be taking place at league level. The top 3 teams in each zone will be participating in the ‘Super Playoffs’. The teams that top the tables in each zone will be the only one who holds the advantage at this stage. For the others, road to the final gets even more tougher. They will have to face at least 3 matches if they hope to play in the Finals on 28th October.
All this action won’t fit in the span of 1 month and our Kabaddi treat is extended to 3 months. Season 5 of PKL will hold no less than 138 matches in total. Countdown has started and the season premier is just a day away. With the match between Telugu Titans and Tamil Thalaivas the season will kick off. So, brace yourself for action packed 3 months as Panga gets Bigger.

T he countdown has began for the most prestigious tournament in the world. Although it’s for boys of age Under 17, it’s a World Cup anyway. India is taking part in the Football world cup for very first time. In few hours time our boys in blue will be moving on the field to show their talent. Whole world has very high exceptions from the hosts. Before they start their 1st match, we must know about the guys representing us at such a high level. THE SQUAD:  The Captain AMARJIT SINGH KIYAM (Midfielder and Captain): The 16 years old guy was elected as a captain by everyone except himself. Such a selfless guy is a leader that we need.

He is currently highest goal scorer of Indian side. Scoring against the Brazil must have increased his confid...

THE FEDAL YEAR

Image
S ometimes we experience real joy when we turn back pages of a book just to read our most favourite part. That’s what exactly happened when Two most loved tennis legends came back to their top game. Last year tennis fans would have given away anything to watch their favourite players at the top, this year we got it. The comeback from injury breaks proved just like a fairytale for both Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer. 2017 is the year when both Federer and Nadal won two Grand Slams each out of all four, dividing it in perfect 50-50. As this has never happened before, fans all over, are calling it “FEDAL SLAM”. But not just slams, the whole year has a mark of Fedal over it. That’s the reason, for the Tennis, it’s a FEDAL YEAR. Since the very start of the year, both players gave us the glimpse of their return and how fabulous year fans will have ahead. In the very first Grand slam of the year, Australian open we were treated with the final between two giants. They had played las...
