The first player born in the 21st century to play in VIVO Pro Kabaddi League, Naveen Kumar Goyat emerged as the find of season 6. The then 18-year-old raider played 22 matches for Dabang Delhi K.C and scored a mind-boggling 172 raid points at an average of 7.81 raid points per match.

Kumar registered eight Super 10s in his debut season apart from executing three super raids. The youngster even saved an all-out for his team by completing a super tackle in one game. Naveen was one of the main reasons behind Dabang Delhi's qualification into the second round of the Pro Kabaddi League last year.

The franchise had never reached the playoffs of the tournament, thus marking a historic first for the team. The Delhi fans will have their eyes glued to young Naveen this season as they look to claim their first PKL trophy.
