New Delhi: The stage is set for the first Maharashtrian derby of the action-packed Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 12th season as both the teams face-off on September 18 at the Sawai Mansingh Indoor Stadium. U Mumba and Puneri Paltan represent the Maharashtrian lobby in PKL with both teams being contenders for winning the championship. Maharashtra’s Kabaddi culture has a rich history and both captains are ready to carry forward the prestige in PKL 12.

Puneri Paltan’s star raider Aslam Inamdar is the first Maharashtrian skipper to win the PKL trophy as he led Paltan to the title in PKL 10. The last Maharashtrian derby was played on November 3 at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium last year.

PKL legend Ajay Thakur will coach........
