India's last three games in the competition -- two against Pakistan and the semifinal against Korea, featured three raiders in the lineup on most occasions in the form of Ajay Thakur, Maninder Singh and Pardeep Narwal, all three of whom were performed excellently.

However, many fans were left disappointed as star raiders Rohit Kumar and Rahul Chaudhari, both Pro Kabaddi megastars, did not get playing time on the mat in the big games.

The two had fine individual showings in the fifth edition of the PKL and one certainly expected them to take to the match in important encounters, given their experience and skill.
