Pro Kabaddi League Season 6: Top 5 Raiders from the tournament

#3 - Siddharth Sirish Desai (U Mumba)

Siddharth Desai remained not out against defenders at a percentage of 77.57%.

This young lad hailing from Kolhapur won many hearts in his debut season of Pro Kabaddi, perhaps shattering many records in the dawn of the league itself.

Siddharth scored 15 raid points in his debut match versus Puneri Paltan. He completed his 50th raid point in the 4th match itself as a destined 'Mumboy Wonder.'

Siddharth's raiding skills are a perfect combination of agility combined with raw strength as he left the defenders bewildered with his escapes, pushing the defenders out of their bounds en route to the midline.

His running hand touches were swift with his long legs enabling him to extend properly. All in all, he reached the midline quite smoothly taking a couple of defenders with him.

Siddharth Desai had a memorable debut, innovating the modern techniques of raiding to a whole new level. He scored 218 raid points in 21 matches with 12 Super 10s which had him on the 3rd spot of total raid points tally.
