The Kabaddi Champions League is set to enter its semi-final stage after an exciting phase of the league stage.
After a slew of battles that kicked-off on January 27 at the Sports University of Haryana in Rai in Sonipat, the four teams that will play the semi-finals have been confirmed.
Here is everything you need to know ahead of today’s semi-final double-header.
Kabaddi Champions League 2026: Semi Final Schedule
Both matches will take place today, Friday, February 6, 2026.
| Match | Teams | Time (IST) |
| Semi-Final 1 | Panipat Panthers vs Rohtak Royals | 7:00 PM |
| Semi-Final 2 | Hisar Heroes vs Bhiwani Bulls | 8:00 PM |
Match 1 Preview: Panipat Panthers vs Rohtak Royals
This is a classic “momentum vs pedigree” matchup. The Rohtak Royals dominated much of the early league stage as table-toppers, but the Panipat Panthers are coming in hot after a convincing victory over the Royals in their most recent encounter on Day 10.
- Panipat Panthers: Keep an eye on Meetu Sharma. He has been unstoppable in the raiding department, recently dismantled the Karnal Kings with multiple super raids. Their defense, led by Ankit Jaglan, has found its rhythm at the perfect time.
- Rohtak Royals: They rely heavily on the dual threat of Vijay Malik (raiding) and the veteran experience of Sandeep Narwal in defense. While they stumbled in the final days of the league, their tactical maturity makes them dangerous in knockout scenarios.
Match 2 Preview: Hisar Heroes vs Bhiwani Bulls
Expect fireworks in this one. The Bhiwani Bulls made history on the final day of the league by scoring a massive 84 points against Faridabad, while the Hisar Heroes were the first team to qualify for the playoffs.
- Hisar Heroes: Led by skipper Ashu Malik, who is currently one of the top raiders of the tournament. Their strength lies in their balanced defense, marshaled by Sourav Nandal and Surjeet Narwal. They are arguably the most disciplined unit in the league.
- Bhiwani Bulls: They possess the “X-factor” in Devank Dalal, the league’s most prolific raider with over 125 raid points. Supported by Hitesh in defense, the Bulls play a high-risk, high-reward style that can overwhelm even the best defensive lines.
