Deepak Niwas Hooda led Puneri Paltan to the playoffs as a full-time captain back in Season 5.

One of the best all-rounders in the game, Deepak Niwas Hooda has uplifted his game with every season. He has emerged as one of the most lethal left raiders in Pro Kabaddi today along with his defensive ability as well.

Deepak Niwas Hooda was signed by the Jaipur Pink Panthers last year. After Anup Kumar announced his retirement from the game, Hooda was handed over the captaincy owing to which he performed much better as a complete player, leading from the front.

The third highest point scorer of the league, Hooda has 710 raid points and 75 tackle points in his overall career. He has 24 Super 10s to his name with an average of 6.89 raid points.

The all-rounder has always led his team from the front and the fact that he advises the young raiders of his team to play freely makes him a top captain while the way he controls the defensive with his calculative mindset also makes him a vital asset to the team.

Jaipur Pink Panthers will look to have Deepak as the captain yet again for the upcoming seventh season.
