A PKL career compelling of 82 matches, Meraj Sheykh has earned accolades by bagging 362 points in total which includes 53 tackle points as well.
Fazel Atrachali (UMumba)
Iran and UMumba’s skipper Fazel Atrachali will be leading UMumba for the second straight season in 2019. In the last edition of Pro Kabaddi League, he was the Green arm-band holder for the majority of the season.
However, the possession of the Green arm-band was eventually taken by UP’s Nitesh Kumar, but his tally of 83 raid points stood tall for UMumba throughout the season. He would be eyeing to breach that 100 tackle points barrier and evolve even more in this season.

Abozar Mohajermighani (Telugu Titans)
Considered as one of the most prolific defenders in the Telugu Titans set-up, Abozar Mohajermighani has been one of the cornerstones in the last two seasons for the Titans.
He has consistently breached the 50 tackle points barrier from the last two seasons playing for the Titans. A hat-trick of 50+ would be something extraordinary which would be the next mission for Abozar.
