PKL 2025: Debutant Defender Shocks with 45 Points; Coach Calls Deepak Sankar ‘Fearless’

Ever see a brand-new player step onto the mat and just completely own it? That’s exactly what’s happening in PKL 2025 with Bengaluru Bulls’ debutant defender, Deepak Sankar. After a massive 43-32 win against Bengal Warriorz on October 12, his coach is making some seriously bold claims about this young talent.

Key Takeaways

  • Deepak Sankar has already scored 45 tackle points, ranking him second on the defenders’ leaderboard.
  • He has secured an impressive four “High Fives” in his debut season so far.
  • Head Coach BC Ramesh praised his “fearless approach,” stating he’s “not afraid of any raider.”
  • Fans on platforms like Reddit are already calling him a “future star” of kabaddi.

Dominating on the Mat

Look, newcomers are supposed to be a little nervous, right? Apparently, nobody told Deepak Sankar that. In the Bulls’ recent 43-32 victory over the Bengal Warriorz, he was an absolute wall, racking up a massive six tackle points. That performance didn’t just win the match; it earned him his fourth High Five of the season.

Think about that. Four High Fives in your debut season is practically unheard of. And this came just a day after he was instrumental in the Bulls’ dominant 47-26 win against the Jaipur Pink Panthers, where he also completed another High Five. He’s not just playing; he’s taking over.
