While raiders are the ones who get Pro Kabaddi fans excited and off their seats, it is the defenders who help you win titles by forming the foundations for a successful team.
After all, while raiders might help you win matches, ultimately it is a strong defence that helps you win titles.
Completing a successful tackle though is easier said than done in the all-action, high-octane and top quality environment that comes with Pro Kabaddi.
However, some defenders seem to have cracked the code when it comes to pulling off successful tackles on a consistent basis.
Registering one tackle point in a Pro Kabaddi match is hard enough but notching up five is even more difficult.
That said, a few individuals have made a habit out of scoring five tackle points or more to complete a High 5 in a Pro Kabaddi game.
Surjeet Singh has registered the most High 5s (29) in Pro Kabaddi, while Fazel Atrachali with 26 High 5s comes in second.
Some talents have gone even a step further by recording High 5s in successive matches and here we have a look at those players with the most consecutive High 5s in Pro Kabaddi.
Surender Nada is sixth in the all-time leaderboard for most High 5s with 21 of them to his name. Part of a select group of seven defenders with 20 or more High 5s in Pro Kabaddi history, Surender Nada’s run of five consecutive High 5s in Pro Kabaddi matches is the most by any player. He did so while representing Haryana Steelers in Season 5 from July to August in 2017. Nada, in fact, was in scintillating form in Season 5 as he finished the campaign with nine High 5s – the joint-most by any player in the fifth edition of PKL.
