Controversies	• Blocked by his coach According to Bengaluru Bulls' head coach, Randhir Sehrawat, he had previously blocked the franchise's former captain, Pawan Sehrawat, on social media. Pawan had left the Bulls and joined the Tamil Thalaivas, but unfortunately, he sustained an injury in the very first match of the tournament. Randhir mentioned that he typically blocks almost everyone during the league, but he made an exception for Pawan and had a conversation with him. The coach expressed that it would be advantageous for the league if Pawan recovers from his injury promptly. "However, I decided to unblock Pawan and inquire about his well-being. We had a personal conversation. It would be beneficial for the league if he returns to action soon. Pawan enjoys a massive fan base here in Bengaluru as well. You'll witness a strong support for him when he steps on the field. Having the top raider of the last three seasons play will be advantageous for the league," added Randhir.
