Anup Kumar, the most prolific raider of Pro Kabaddi, plays for U Mumba. He has earned the most points in the league so far with 275 points to his name and was rightly named the MVP in the first season. The 32-year-old raider has a habit of earning bonus points for his team and if needed, he can play as a defender too and help his team to get out of tough situations. In 2012, he was awarded the Arjuna Award by the Ministry or Youth Affairs & Sports, Government of India.

Jang Kun Lee proved his might in the first edition of the league and emerged as one of the best foreign players on show. Though Bengal Warriors’ campaign was marred with inconsistencies, Kun Lee made his existence on the field felt. His skills as a raider coupled with his amazing technique in tagging opponents helped him make his mark in the Star Sports Pro Kabaddi. The 23-year-old gathered a over 50 points for his team with his fleet-footed technique, and has become a crowd favourite too.
