Right In: Anup Kumar

Anup Kumar is the most successful captain in Pro Kabaddi with U Mumba's winning percentage of 64.63%

There were many speculations around the Kabaddi world if Anup should have retired last season and he isn't the same player that he used to be. He proved everybody wrong with his outstanding comeback in the Senior Nationals 2017-18 with Haryana.

In Season 5, Anup Kumar got 112 raid points in 21 matches just 2 points short of team's star raider Kashiling Adake at 114 raid points. He has the guts to outshine everybody with his class.

Known for his bonus taking ability which nicknamed him 'Bonus Ka Badshah' Anup Kumar has the precise toe touch. He ranks 6th in the most raid points in Pro Kabaddi with 489 raid points in 78 matches averaging 6.27 raid points.

Also, Anup has the most defence points as a raider in Pro Kabaddi (57). He'll lead the side with his calm and composed captaincy to win matches with a steady flow.
