SQUAD ANALYSIS
Following a disappointing campaign last season, Bengaluru Bulls retained only four players — Chandranaik M, Lucky Kumar, Manjeet, and Pankaj — before the Season 12 auction, where it rebuilt its squad from the ground up.
Strength: A dynamic Indian core, strong defensive formation, and the presence of multiple all-rounders give the team balance.
Weakness: The key question is how quickly this new group can gel under a coach with a very distinct philosophy.
Bengaluru Bulls will open its Pro Kabaddi League 12 campaign against Puneri Paltan in Visakhapatnam on August 29.
The schedule for the playoffs will be announced at a later date.
