Pawan Sehrawat\u2019s Sudden Exit: What Happened?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pawan Sehrawat, one of the most expensive buys this season at \u20b959.50 lakh and a key player for Tamil Thalaivas, was expected to lead the team from the front in PKL 12. However, during match number 30 against Bengal Warriors, he was conspicuously absent from the team lineup<\/strong>.<\/a> This led to many fans asking \u2013 “Where is Pawan?”<\/em> and “Why isn\u2019t he playing?”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon, speculations turned into confirmation when Tamil Thalaivas released an official statement<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cPawan Sehrawat has been sent back home due to disciplinary reasons and will not be part of the squad for the remainder of the season.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The franchise added that the decision was not taken lightly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThis decision has been taken after due consideration and in accordance with the team\u2019s code of conduct.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

What Triggered the Action?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Although the team has refrained from giving any detailed explanation of the nature of the disciplinary breach, signs were visible even before the official statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the end of the Visakhapatnam leg<\/strong>, when teams began moving to Jaipur<\/strong> <\/a>for the next phase of the tournament, Tamil Thalaivas shared several travel updates and behind-the-scenes content on their social media platforms. Interestingly, Pawan Sehrawat was missing from all visuals and updates<\/strong>, leading to whispers that all was not well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His absence from the lineup against Bengal Warriors only added fuel to the fire. With the official announcement, it is now confirmed that Pawan will play no further role<\/strong> in PKL 2025 \u2013 at least for Tamil Thalaivas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pawan Sehrawat Breaks Silence: Responds to Tamil Thalaivas’ Allegations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Soon after Tamil Thalaivas officially announced Pawan Sehrawat\u2019s removal from the squad, the star raider took to Instagram on Sunday, 14th September<\/strong>, to share his side of the story. In a heartfelt video message, Pawan firmly denied all allegations of indiscipline and expressed disappointment over the franchise\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cIf I am even 1% guilty of indiscipline, I will quit kabaddi. I say this with complete respect,\u201d<\/strong> said Pawan, directly addressing the fans and the kabaddi community.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He emphasized his experience with the Indian national team<\/strong>, where discipline is of utmost importance, and made it clear that such accusations were not only untrue but hurtful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI have represented India. I know the value of discipline. If the team can prove that I\u2019ve been undisciplined, I\u2019ll leave the sport altogether.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In the same video, Pawan also extended his gratitude to fans for their support and sent good wishes to the Tamil Thalaivas for the rest of the season, maintaining a dignified and respectful tone despite the controversy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This public statement has added a new layer to the unfolding drama, as it directly contradicts the franchise’s claims. With both sides now presenting conflicting narratives, all eyes are on how the situation develops further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
