Jaipur Pink Panthers won the Pro Kabaddi League Season 9 Final against a hard-fighting Puneri Paltan by a score of 33-29 to win their second PKL championship on Saturday. After Patna, Jaipur Pink Panthers, the league's first-ever winners, are currently only the second team to win multiple titles.
Arjun Deshwal, the season's greatest raider, scored six points in the decisive final, while his captain Sunil Kumar, who scored six points on defence, stood by him admirably. In the game, Raider V Ajith Kumar added 6 points.
Puneri Paltan, captained by Fazel Atracheli, was unfortunate to win the match since they were unable to defeat Pink Panthers in the championship game. They did, however, put up a solid fight throughout the game and had a chance to defeat the determined Panthers.
Pink Panthers performed better than Puneri Paltan in every aspect of the game and had a distinct appearance. The Pune-based team may have felt the strain of the big game and wasn't able to perform to their full potential on D-Day.
