#1 - Indian Railways
The Indian Railways team for 66th Senior National Kabaddi Championship is non-arguably the best team Railways have ever had in the recent history. Perhaps, this is the most star-studded squad in the Nationals, where all 12 members in the team have played top class Kabaddi lately.
The versatile veteran, Dharmaraj Cheralathan will lead the Railways team for this year's nationals. Ravinder Pahal and Sandeep Dhull, who have played together in the past, will play a crucial role in the corner defense.
The most praised cover defenders, namely Parvesh Bhainswal and Sunil Kumar, will look to continue their momentum from the Pro Kabaddi. Even their backup in Ravi Kumar, alongside all-rounder Rohit Gulia, will also play with maturity, if required.
The raiding line-up of Railways is phenomenal with Pawan Kumar Sehrawat, who made the headlines with his fantastic raiding performances in PKL 6 as the frontline raider. Supporting him will be Vikash Khandola who was the best raider for Haryana Steelers and Shrikant Jadhav who saved UP Yoddha in the most crucial situations.
Backups in the raiding department namely Selvamani K. and Deepak Narwal are known to play with freedom and consistency. On an all-around aspect, perhaps every player in the team is knowledgeable and top class athletes.
It won't be a surprise if Railways conquer the 66th Senior National Kabaddi Championship, and their matches are bound to be exhilarating to watch!
