For the upcoming Pro Kabaddi League Season 12, Maharashtra’s experienced raider Ajinkya Ashok Pawar is set to represent Dabang Delhi KC after being bought for ₹13 lakh at the 2025 auction. The 28-year-old has already featured in 109 PKL matches, collecting 514 raid points, and is well known as one of the league’s most reliable Do-or-Die specialists, ranking among the top 10 all-time scorers. His ability to deliver under pressure adds significant depth to Delhi’s attack. 

Dabang Delhi KC enter the new season with strong momentum, having gone on a record 15-match unbeaten streak in Season 11, which included 11 wins and 4 ties, though their run ended with a semi-final loss to Patna Pirates. With memories of their Season 8 title still fresh, Delhi aim to reclaim the championship, banking on a balanced squad that blends experience and flair. 

Defensive stalwart Fazel Atrachali will lead the backline, supported by Surjeet Singh and Amir Hossein Bastami, while Naveen Kumar and Ashu Malik form a formidable raiding duo. Pawar’s presence offers versatility and reliability in crunch situations. Delhi begin their campaign on September 2 against Bengaluru Bulls in Vizag, determined to build on past success and target a second PKL crown.
