The Jaipur Pink Panthers: Fresh off a convincing victory against the Gujarat Giants, Arjun Deshwal, captain of former winners Jaipur Pink Panthers, is already focused on their next challenge in Season 11 of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) -- taking on another former champion in Puneri Paltan at the Noida Indoor Stadium here on Sunday.

The Jaipur Pink Panthers emerged victorious over the Gujarat Giants in their last match on the back of a well-rounded team effort through the combined raiding prowess of Arjun Deshwal, Neeraj Narwal and Shrikant Jadhav, while Reza Mirbagheri anchored their defensive unit.

The match also marked a significant milestone for Panthers' skipper Deshwal, who joined an elite group by becoming just the third raider this season to surpass 100 raid points in PKL Season 11 at the Noida Indoor Stadium here.
