Tue Oct 15 14:30:00 UTC 2024: ## Patna Pirates and Dabang Delhi Bolster Squads for PKL 11

**New Delhi, [Date]** – With the 11th season of Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) just around the corner, teams are scrambling to finalize their squads. Several players have been ruled out due to injuries or personal reasons, forcing teams to make crucial changes.

**Patna Pirates** have added experienced cover defender **Arkam Sheikh** to their lineup. Sheikh previously played for Gujarat Giants in PKL 10 but was not picked in the recent auction. This acquisition comes as a relief for Patna, who have already announced their new captain **Shubham Shinde** and vice-captain **Ankit Jaglan**.

**Dabang Delhi KC** have also made a key addition, signing right corner defender **Monu Sharma**. Sharma was part of the Delhi team in Season 9 and is looking to make a strong impact this time around. They also recently acquired young raider **Aniket Mane**.

Both teams have suffered setbacks with key players out. **Dabang Delhi** will be without star raider **Siddharth Desai** due to personal reasons, while cover defender **Himmat Antil** is out for the entire tournament due to injury.

The addition of Sheikh and Sharma is expected to strengthen the defensive lines of both teams, making them contenders for the title in PKL 11.
