Follow us on

The Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5 has taken the entire nation by storm so far. A longer season and with the introduction of four new teams, the sport has brought back the originality from the dirt to a mat with thousands of people cheering on their favourite teams. It is October as we set into the last month of the league and slowly close in on the play-offs. The raiders, the defenders and the all-rounders have made their statement known on the mat as millions witness the thrilling action in every match so far. As we edge near the qualifiers, the teams are doing all they can to get their hands of the coveted trophy. 

In Zone A, it has been the debutants of the season Gujarat Fortunegiants who have dominated the proceedings so far. Their raiders, defenders and all-rounders have been on top form as they have lost only four games so far, drawn thrice and have won eleven times. Even the best of teams have been humiliated by the power and brute strength of Sukesh Hedge's Gujarat Fortunegiants. Haryana Steelers who are also debuts of the season have shown the teams how Kabaddi is actually played. Kabaddi is Haryana's originality and that's what they have done best as Surender Nada's Steelers have been the best defensive unit so far in the season as their skipper has the most tackles this season with 66 points. Teams such as Puneri Paltan, former champions U Mumba and Jaipur Pink Panthers still have a fighting chance of making it into the play-offs. Dabang Delhi K.C. have been disappointing throughout the season as they have lost 14 matches so far. Even though their skipper Meraj Sheykh tops the All-rounder's charts with 95 points of raids and tackles, the Delhi team has not been able to make an impact in the season with just four wins. 

In Zone B, the double defending champions Patna Pirates are still at large as the mighty 'Dubki King' Pardeep Narwal has hunted and gunned down the opposition teams with his superb raids. Patna top the zone and look on to claim the title for a third consecutive time. The Pirates have lost five matches so far but the competition in Zone B is tougher. The Bengal Warriors and debut team U.P Yoddha are in the second and third spot but the numbers can change soon as there is still enough time to make it to the play-offs as Telugu Titans, Tamil Thalaivas and the Bengaluru Bulls look on add their name in the qualifiers as the competition gets tougher. 

Pardeep Narwal tops the charts as the top raider with 243 raid points so far. The 'Dubki King'is the first player in the history of the Pro Kabaddi to reach 200 raid points in 15 matches. The defending champions have their warrior as he still continues to slay his opponents.

It's all to play for as the teams edge closer to the play-offs and it is yet truly hard to decide a winner in the league so far. The Inter-Zone challenges have allowed the teams from each zone to take on a team from the other zone. With the Inter-Zone Wildcard match to happen, there is no doubt that each team has a lot more to offer. Who will come out on top?. Who will be crowned Pro Kabaddi League Season 5 champions?. It's game on from now.
