Selvamani K is one of the few glittering stars for Dabang Delhi, who have had 3 very disappointing seasons in Star Sports Pro Kabaddi so far. He has played selflessly for his team in the past few seasons and has been undoubtedly one of their better performers with decent showings on the field.

The 24-year-old has played 18 matches so far for the Delhi franchise and has scored a total of 53 points, with 52 of them coming through his destructive raids. Despite a poor season for the team last time around, Selvamani managed to score 38 raid points, giving ample support to his captain Kashiling Adake.

Selvamani is one of the most significant members of his team, and is indispensable for Dabang Delhi and that was highlighted by the fact that the team chose to retain him over captain Ravinder Pahal. Having finished in the bottom 3 of the league in the last three seasons, any hopes and aspirations that Dabang Delhi have of being successful in their fourth try would be lying on his young shoulders, as he aims to make Season 4 his breakthrough year.
