As a Gurugram fan, this is getting tough to watch. We have good players like Neeraj Narwal, but the team coordination seems off. Need a better strategy next match. All the best, Gurus!

Sandeep Narwal showing why he's a legend! His High 5 completely neutralized Ashu Malik. Rohtak's defence was a wall today. Hisar's unbeaten run had to end sometime, but they'll bounce back.

Watching from Canada! The skill level in this league is incredible. The balance between raiding and defence mentioned in the article was so clear in both matches. Kabaddi deserves a global stage.

Respectful criticism: The article is good but I wish it had more stats. How many tackle points did Ankit Jaglan get? What was the time of the all-outs? A little more detail for us hardcore fans would be great.
