Jaipur Pink Panthers failed to replicate their first season’s performance in 2015. However, Jasvir Singh showed great skills on the court for the winners of the inaugural season as he gathered 64 raid and 10 defence points for his team.

With a total of 113 points (106 raid + 7 defence), Jasvir Singh proved to be a pillar of success for the Jaipur franchise in the first season. Popularly known as the ‘smiling assassin’, Jasvir, 31, helped the Indian team clinch its 7th successive gold medal at the Asian Games in 2014.

Manjeet Chhillar

The captain of the Bengaluru Bulls has been a regular for the Indian team for the last six years. He is, undoubtedly, one of the most accomplished all-rounders in world kabaddi today. Under his captaincy, the team from Bengaluru finished as the runners-up in the second season of Pro Kabaddi while he picked up the MVP award.

Not only did he impressed everyone with his leadership, but he also showed some brillian performance with his raiding and tackling. Manjeet was the most successful defender last year as he scored 51 tackle points and the 29-year-old was effective on both ends of the court this season by scoring 67 raid points and 38 tackle points.
