The 13th season of the Pro Kabaddi League has not been officially scheduled yet, but reports suggest the league is waiting until after the Asian Games before moving ahead.
According to Khel Now, the player auction is expected in mid-October, with the season itself likely to start in late December and run for around two months. Neither date has been confirmed by the organisers.
Delhi defend the title
Dabang Delhi KC go into the new season as champions after beating Puneri Paltan in the PKL 12 final in October 2025, their second title. Fazel Atrachali was named the season’s most valuable player, while Patna Pirates raider Ayan Lohchab topped the raid-point charts.
Some teams have already started preparing. Gujarat Giants have appointed Randhir Singh Sehrawat as head coach for the new season.
