Aslam Inamdar's Puneri Paltans strengthen their place atop points tally

In eight games, Puneri Paltans have only lost one game this season to sit comfortably atop the points table. The raiding trio of Aslam Inamdar, Mohit Goyat and Pankaj Mohit has been nothing short of outstanding.

The three have combined to score 151 raid points. What makes them a formidable unit is the fact that each raider is capable of defending too. They have not only secured points in offence but in defence as well.

The addition of Mohammadreza Chiyaneh has made them a team to beat. His speed and strength make him an unstoppable force on the mat, and the Iranian has proved that time and again. With 34 successful tackles, he's wreaking havoc on the mat.

Puneri Paltans play their next game against Tamil Thalaivas on Sunday in Mumbai.
