Naveen Goyat was the find of the season for Dabang Delhi in his debut season with the team in season 6. He became the first player born in the 21st century to play in the Pro Kabaddi league and second-youngest player to score a Super 10 in the tournament.

He quickly gained prominence as the lead raider for Dabang Delhi when the team's main pick Meraj Sheykh was struggling to provide raid points in the league matches. He executed running hand touches with precision and also made a mark with easy points from the Do or Die raids.

Naveen Goyat scored 172 raid points in 22 matches at an average of 7.81 raid points last season. With eight Super 10s to his name at a raiding strike rate of 56.02%, he finished as the eighth-best raider of season 6.

With the youngster proving his worth under pressure and performing consistently, it was a no-brained that Naveen was retained by the franchise for PKL 7.
