Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5: Five players who look set to have a career defining season

#5 Anup Kumar

U Mumba will again look to Anup Kumar to deliver

The most important player in the league can also look forward to the most important season of his PKL career. Here is a man who picked up a massive, never seen before, 155 raid points in season 1. But since that explosive first year, Kumar has tempered his game as per the requirements of the team.

Individually speaking, Kumar is still up there with the very best, consistently hitting the 70-point mark. This time around, he will be leading probably the weakest U Mumba side he has ever been part of. And thus, it will be intriguing to see how he manages his responsibilities and get the best out of this side. The challenges are plenty and the road to success will be filled with unexpected bumps. But If there’s one man who knows how to calm the storm, it’s Anup Kumar.
