Pro Kabaddi 2019: Top 5 raiders from the Delhi Leg

#2 Manjeet Dahiya (Puneri Paltan)

Manjeet Dahiya emerged as a lead raider for the last two matches of Puneri Paltan.

Matches Played - 2, Total Raid Points - 27

Manjeet Dahiya emerged as a surprise in the list of the top raiders in the Delhi leg. He led the offense upfront as the lead raider for the Puneri Paltan in their two matches.

He achieved the highest score by any Puneri Paltan player in the season - 16 raid points - against UP Yoddha. He stepped up to lead the attack in the absence of Nitin Tomar but could not take the team across the finishing line as UP Yoddha managed to defeat the Paltan 35-30.

Puneri Paltan faced Telugu Titans in the next encounter as Manjeet Dahiya scored eight raid points and was handed decent support from Nitin Tomar, as the duo troubled the Titans defenders all through the game and led the team to a 34-27 win in the end.
