On Friday, January 19, Telugu Titans and Bengaluru Bulls will play in the 78th Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) at Hyderabad’s Gachibowli Indoor Stadium.
The Titans’ season is going to be another forgettable one. With just one victory and eleven losses from their past 12 games, they are still buried near the bottom of the standings. In addition, the Titans have dropped their last five games.
Bengaluru Bulls’ inconsistent play is still a problem for them in the meantime. They’ve played five games now, with two victories and three losses. The Bulls, who have five wins and eight losses, dropped their most recent match.
This is a look at TEL and BLR’s head-to-head record in the Pakistan Super League ahead of their first match of the Hyderabad leg.

In the history of Pro Kabaddi, the Titans and the Bulls have faced off 22 times.
The fact that the Bulls have defeated the Titans 15 times while the Titans have only won three times in the series should give them confidence. The two teams’ four games have ended on Tuesday.
When the teams play again, the Titans plan to even the score from their narrow victory over the Bulls earlier in the season.
Number of Games: 22
Telugu Titans’ victories in matches: 3
Bengaluru Bulls’ record in victories: 15
No-result matches: 4
Bengaluru Bulls vs. Telugu Titans Pro Kabaddi matches’ last three
The Bulls’ winning streak of three straight Pro Kabaddi games against the Titans is another statistic working in their favor.
Even though Pawan Sehrawat scored 13 points in their previous meeting this season, the Bulls managed to defeat the Titans by a narrow margin thanks to an impressive all-around performance from Surjeet Singh (6 points), Bharat (6 points), Vikash Kandola, and Neeraj Narwal (5 points apiece).
Bharat (17 points) and Neeraj (13 points) both had outstanding games as the Bulls prevailed in their final meeting of the season.
Bengaluru produced another strong all-around performance in their other matchup from the previous season, with Neeraj (seven), Bharat and Vikash (five each), Mahender Singh and Saurabh Nandal (four each) rising to the occasion.
