Gearing up for the Titanic act

With precisely five days to go for the commencement of the fifth edition of the hugely popular Pro Kabaddi League, the Hyderabad-based Telugu Titans, led by the charismatic raider, Rahul Chaudhari, have intensified the momentum of their 45-day training regimen and conditioning camp in the outskirts of the city.

They will host debutant Tamil Thalaivas in the opener on July 28. Yet to scale dizzy heights despite boasting extraordinary talent like seasoned campaigner Rakesh Kumar, the Titans will be hoping that it will be a case of fifth-time lucky for them. New coach Naveen Kumar remains positive this time around.
