We've devised strategies for all kinds of situations. I think we'll have a good contest against Tamil Thalaivas and we are all looking forward to our first game."

The star raider also spoke about the importance of Season 10 for kabaddi in India, "The tenth season of the Pro Kabaddi League is a big achievement for the players and Mashal Sports. A game, which was mostly played in rural centres, is being played in big cities today. We are quite excited for this season."

The Bengaluru Bulls' Captain Saurabh Nandal spoke about the mood in his team's camp ahead of their first match of the season, "The team is feeling quite good ahead of the season. We've trained hard during the training sessions and we are geared up for our first match. The Gujarat Giants have a terrific team. They have strong players such as Fazel Atrachali, Rakesh, and Parteek Dahiya among others. It'll be a good game."

Nandal also expressed that the team is determined to reach the Final this season, "We've reached the playoffs in the last three seasons, but we were not able to reach the Final in those editions. We are working hard to reach the summit clash this season. We have the belief that we can do better this season."
