Raiders collect the most points for a team in a Kabaddi match and hence, they gain more popularity than the defenders. This is why it’s said that ‘raid is the focal point of kabaddi’. A couple of good raiders can change the whole tempo of the match within a few minutes owing to their superior techniques and tactics. Now, let’s look at the list of top raiders in the history of the Vivo Pro Kabaddi League (PKL).

1. Pardeep Narwal (1160 Points)
