2016 Kabaddi World Cup: 5 players to watch out for in the India vs Iran final

#3 Pardeep Narwal

Pardeep Narwal has carried his rich vein of form from the Pro Kabaddi League into the tournament

The young raid machine entered the tournament in red-hot form, and has carried it through the course of the tournament. The “dupki master” as he is fondly called for his ability to put in an agile dive from underneath the defender and escape from his hold, has shined at the World Cup in the raiding department.

The 19-year old from Sonipat, the kabaddi capital of India, has 47 points already to his name and impressed in the semi-finals. Against Thailand, he claimed his second Super 10, and also showcased his ability of gathering points in heaps with a couple of Super Raids.

The man has amassed more than a century of points in the last two seasons of Pro Kabaddi and guided his team Patna Pirates to the title in each one of them. This is no mean feat, and he will undoubtedly be eager to repeat the same accomplishment in the Blue jersey for India.
