#3 Rakesh Kumar calls Pardeep Narwal a copycat
Rakesh Kumar, an Arjuna awardee and a former India captain, is one of the most senior players in the PKL. He realizes the respect he commands from his juniors and hence never hesitates from speaking his mind. However, when he accused Patna's star man, Pardeep Narwal of copying the dubki, all hell broke loose.
The usually calm Pirates coach, Ram Mehar Singh responded with a stinging reply asking Rakesh to be within his limits. Contrary to what Rakesh suggested, Mehar Singh proclaimed that he's never seen a dubki like Pardeep's. We can only wonder what Rahul Chaudhari would have been thinking when this controversy broke.
