5 instances when India lost a Kabaddi match

#5 Indian 7 v World 7 (Pro Kabaddi All-Stars Match, Hyderabad)

The World 7's defence scripted a comeback against Indian 7.

The Pro Kabaddi All-Stars match was an exhibition match, before the commencement of the seventh season of PKL. This was a friendly match organized ahead of the PKL to give a preview of the revamped Indian side squaring off against some of the best players from the world.

Pawan Sehrawat was named in the Indian 7 side, and he impressed in his initial outing with a Super-10 against the lethal defensive unit of World 7. However, his solo efforts went in vain courtesy of rock-solid defending from Fazel Atrachali and top raiding Jang Kun Lee, who starred in the comeback after half-time.

Mohammad Nabibakhsh set the tone with his all-round performance that took down the Indian defence led by Nitesh Kumar and Girish Ernak. He scored consistently, inflicting an All Out against the Indian 7 in the 39th minute of the match to win by a close margin (32-33) in the end.
