PKL 2019: Top 5 all-rounders to watch out for

#3 Deepak Niwas Hooda - Jaipur Pink Panthers

Deepak Niwas Hooda has been one of the most reliable players of PKL

2016 Kabaddi World Cup winner, Deepak Niwas Hooda has set new benchmarks for an all-rounder in the sport of kabaddi. Hooda is a consistent player who has been a part of the Pro Kabaddi League ever since its inception and has scored 785 points in 103 matches. He has showcased his raiding talent by securing 710 raid points at an average of 6.89 raid points per game.

Even in the defense department, Hooda has contributed for his team with timely tackles. Though Hooda’s tackle points are less than 100, the all-rounder can contribute with his ability to tackle when required for the team. His four High 5s and six Super Tackles show that Deepak can be as consistent as a regular defender but he focuses more on his raiding abilities.
