Shabeer Bappu is the answer to quite a fascinating piece of Pro Kabaddi trivia. With four seasons done and dusted, he remains the only player to have featured in all four finals so far. He was part of the U Mumba side that reached three finals in the first three campaigns, winning one is Season 2.
In season 4, Bappu had to suffice with yet another runners-up finish as he was part of the Jaipur side that lost to Patna in the final. This year, he will make his return with U Mumba once again, after being bought for Rs 45 lakh. Will he make it five finals in a row?
