PKL 2022-23 Players List – UP Yoddha 2022-23
UP Yoddha 2022-23 squad comprises ten raiders, six defenders, and three all-rounders. The team spends money to recreate an attacking squad. Their defensive unit is also not bad because they also got some all-rounders.
They signed Iranian kabaddi player Mohammad Taghi Paein Mahali and Kenyan kabaddi player James Kamweti. UP Yoddha’s performance in PKL seasons 5, 6, 7, and 8 was great. They cleared league stages and qualified for the playoffs in these seasons of the tournament. The team of UP Yoddha is confident to win PKL 2022-23.
