#4 Manjeet Chhillar – India and Puneri Paltan
The wrestler who switched over to kabaddi and became a luminary in the sport. Manjeet Chhillar – perhaps India’s best all-rounder, with over 400 points in the four seasons of the Pro Kabaddi League, is the only player to average above 100 points per season. A champion in his right, he constantly treads the thin line between aggression and over-confidence but usually ends up on the right side of the mat with his exploits and style of play.
A solid defender especially when it comes to advance tackles, Manjeet was at his best in 2016, first for the Puneri Paltan and then the Indian team at the World Cup ending up on the leaderboard with 21 successful tackles. The viewers were treated to an enthralling display of his most lethal moves; the dash, body block and thigh hold through-out, as he never missed a chance to prove his match-winning abilities.
