PKL Season 7 Champion
The PKL (Pro Kabaddi League) began in 2014 with the goal of popularizing the ancient sport of Kabaddi and providing a platform for players to make a name for themselves in a franchise-based competition. The PKL has helped the sport gain popularity by leaps and bounds, as evidenced by the PKL becoming India’s second-most-watched sporting competition after the IPL (Indian Premier League).
Seven seasons of the PKL have been held in its five-year history, with the competition’s success and viewership increasing with each season. The PKL has enabled Kabaddi players to showcase their abilities and earn national call-ups and other future opportunities.
PKL Season 7 Champion: Bengal Warriors
The PKL Season 7 saw two first-time finalists, Bengal Warriors and Dabang Delhi KC, compete for the title, with the Warriors emerging as the competition’s latest winner.
There was no zonal format this season, as each team played every other team twice in a double round-robin format.
Mohammad Nabibakhsh led Bengal Warriors to the final after Captain Maninder Singh injured himself in a league-stage match against Delhi. The Iranian all-rounder scored nine raid points with a solo tackle and led from the front as the Warriors defeated Delhi 39-34 to win their first PKL title.
