Great city of Hyderabad – Telugu Titans team is, unfortunately, one of the least successful teams of Pro Kabaddi League. In fact from the ‘Class of 2014’, the Titans have qualified for the semi-finals/playoffs in the league just twice – only Dabang Delhi has a lousy record of eight founding members.

The squad certainly looks like a force to reckon on in the 2019 season with a combo of star raider Siddharth Desai and Iranian powerhouse defender Abojar Mohajer Mighani. Unexpectedly, since 2016, the Telugu Titans will surely hope for their first playoff appearance. Here is what you need to understand about Telugu Titans:
