Pro Kabaddi League 2021-22 | Tamil Thalaivas vs UP Yoddha preview, when and where to watch and starting 7s

The Tamil Thalaivas slipped to a second straight defeat last night, succumbing to a 37-29 loss against the Haryana Steelers. The Thalaivas’ excellent defence had an uncharacteristically quiet outing, as they finished the game with only eight tackle points. The Thalaivas are still in a good position to qualify for the playoffs, but they need to suspend their slump with a win on Wednesday.

U.P. Yoddha ended their four-game losing streak with a 39-35 victory over the Telugu Titans in their previous outing. Surender Gill and Shrikant Jadhav combined for 20 raid points to guide their side to a much-needed win.

U.P.’s defence managed only nine tackle points and conceded 23 raid points, which would be a cause for concern for coach Jasveer Singh. If U.P.’s defence can find form in the final stretch of the league stage, they will find themselves in the playoffs.
