Injuries have curbed Manjeet Chhillar from displaying his heroics in defence for much of the fifth season of the Pro Kabaddi League. There have also been times when he has blown hot and cold.

On Saturday night, Manjeet got his act together and fetched his team a crucial five points that helped them edge the Tamil Thalaivas by a solitary point. It wasn’t easy with the irrepressible Ajay Thakur scoring yet another Super 10 but the determined Manjeet put forth his champion qualities that led the former champions to a win.

By being on the mat for most of the match, he was successful in all but one of his five tackle attempts. That says a lot about the commitment of the man who was the Most Valuable Player in Season 2.
