Kabaddi: 'Corner Defender Is The Pillar Of The Team', Says Yogesh Dahiya On His Record-breaking Bulls Move
Pro Kabaddi League: The television screen flickered with anticipation as three Pro Kabaddi League franchises locked horns in an intense bidding war. Sitting in his modest home, Yogesh Dahiya watched his fate unfold in real-time, his heart racing with each escalating bid.
"I was watching the player auction live on TV. I could see Bengaluru Bulls bidding, then Patna Pirates, then Bengal Warriorz. I was watching all this unfold," recalls the 23-year-old defender. He emerged as the most expensive Indian defender bought during a PKL player auction, after he was signed by Bengaluru Bulls for a staggering Rs 1.125 crore.
The auction room drama translated into a whirlwind of emotions for the young athlete. "There was a little nervousness - what will happen? Who will take me? Which franchise will I join? But overall, it was very interesting and fun," he reflected.
