Kabaddi is an extremely fast sport. It takes just 40 minutes for a match to be decided. These 40 minutes are packed with exhilarating action as two teams face off in a battle of strength and speed. The viewers are sure to have their eyes fixed at the event, which would take less time than an episode of a TV series.

The players participating in kabaddi need to be extremely fit and agile. The Olympics, which showcases the fittest athletes in the world would be a richer competition if the brawn and swiftness of kabaddi players is added to it.
