In terms of risk, the toe touch is by far the least risky move in the game. But it’s the wisest player in the league who uses it the most – Anup Kumar. Since the past four seasons, U Mumba’s captain may have adapted his game as age catches up with him. But the toe touch remains a constant weapon in his arsenal.

It speaks volumes about the benefits of the move, if executed well. A safe bet when the team is in need of a quick point. On any given day, Anup steadily wanders towards the right corner to begin the move. He lowers himself, using his outstretched right foot, Kumar attempts to touch the opposition defenders using his toe.

He makes sure he maintains balance while executing the toe touch, since essentially, he’s standing on one foot as he implements it.
