Ahmedabad, 7th November 2023: As we eagerly await the commencement of Pro Kabaddi League season 10, which is scheduled to kick off on December 2, 2023, at the Arena by Transstadia Stadium in Ahmedabad, where the home team Adani Gujarat Giants will lock horns against Telugu Titans. Star raider Rohit Gulia is all set to play his part for his team, and give his best shot in his team’s quest for the much-coveted championship.
Talking on his homecoming, Rohit shares “In light of our previous Pro Kabaddi League results, we are giving it all into our preparations this year. Coach Ram Mehar Singh is also assisting the squad in communicating our roles better, each time when there is a conversation, the squad always adapts to his valuable expertise and tries to apply it on the mat”
“We had a combination issue between our raiders and defense in the fifth and sixth season finals, which hindered our performance. Since then, our attacking side has progressed tremendously over the past two seasons, as you can see with the balance of our squad. Additionally, given our performance trajectory has only risen in the previous seasons, we are enthusiastic about turning the tables this time around as we have a great combination of young and experienced players in our roster.”
When quizzed on how excited he is to perform in front of his fans, the raider shares, “It is always an inspiration when fans come to support the Adani Gujrat giants in big numbers. When I play in front of the home crowd, I feel a surge of energy to perform for my team and i am grateful to have Ram Meher Sir and my teammates by my side to support me in my quest for the ultimate glory. As the tournament is coming closer, our bond is only getting stronger and we are leaving no stones unturned to perform at our utmost best.”
Also speaking strongly about the youth athletes, Rohit shares, “We have some amazing talent on the raiders roster, who have established themselves well. Since Season 10, our left raider, Nitin Rawal, has been an invaluable part of the team. Moreover, Prateek debuted as a raider during PKL season 9. Furthermore, there will surely be more chances for gifted players to step up and support the club’s success as the season progresses.”
In the end speaking about his camaraderie with the squad, the athlete shares, “Playing with dedicated athletes and veterans like Fazal Atrachali and Naveen Kumar increases my desire to win the trophy every more this season. I intend to pursue this goal this time, and hopefully we succeed.”
