Jang Kun Lee was one of the first foreign players to sign for the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL). The innocuous looking Lee, who hails from South Korea, has been amazingly consistent with the Bengal Warriors, a team for whom consistency is not the strongest suit.

His raids have been hailed by anyone who has watched the Korean in action. Besides his raids which, have made heads turn, his defending abilities aren’t too far behind either.

The star raider for Bengal has become a crowd favorite from being an unknown quantity in his first season. In the 40 matches he has played for Bengal, Lee has accrued 182 raid points for his team, making 139 successful raids in the process.

His quick footedness makes him a headache for any defence. Lee will be hoping to take a new look Bengal Warriors to their first ever title in this season.
