Pro Kabaddi 2017 Season 5 : Five players who faded away

#5 Sukesh Hegde

Sukesh Hegde’s fall from grace has been a sudden one

By far the most famous player on this list, in 2014, Hegde was part of the holy trinity between him, Deepak Niwas Hooda and Rahul Chaudhari. An ideal environment to thrive in. In season 1, the raider scored an impressive 79 points. Together with Rahul, their partnership was once considered one of the most potent in the game.

Unlike the others, Sukesh didn’t fade away in bits and parts. His downfall was sudden and shocking in every sense of the word. Between Season 2 and 3, he was still there and about, displaying consistency, though not replicating his Season 1 heroics. But it was in Season 4 where Hedge had a nightmarish experience. He scored just seven raid points and regularly found himself on the bench.
