The President of Sri Lanka Kabaddi Federation, Mr. Anura Pathirana has cleared the air to the Pro Kabaddi management that has been no discussions with any of their officials about the prospects of hosting the league in Sri Lanka. The Pro Kabaddi League generally starts in July and ends in October.

After their last match of the league, the three-time champions Patna Pirates coach Ram Mehar Singh has said that they lost around 8-9 matches because they lacked a good second raider and a reliable defence. Patna won their last match against Bengal Warriors with a scoreline of 69-41.

Patna Pirates skipper Pardeep Narwal has said that the team won against Gujarat Fortunegiants because of the joint effort despite him being the top scorer of the match. It was the second-last match of the season for both Gujarat and Patna as none of them were able to make it to the play-offs.

After their win against Gujarat yesterday, Patna coach Ram Mehar Singh said that their pride was at stake in the match and he is glad the team fought for the win. In their second last match of the season, Patna defeated Gujarat 39-33 and this was only their seventh win of the season.
