23 August 15 Shabeer Bapu Sharfudeen Turned out to Be The 23 August 15 Shabeer Bapu Sharfudeen turned out to be the superhero for U Mumba as they were declared the ultimate champions of Star Sports Pro Kabaddi Season 2 today. They beat Bengaluru Bulls 36- 30 in a match that went down to the wire, proving to be a befitting finale to the tournament. Shabeer came up with a three point super raid that brought back Mumba back in the game. The play started on a cautious note with the teams sharing as many points. The first session totally dominated by both the defences. For Mumba it was Mohit Chhillar who gave Ajay Thakur a torrid time. He had him four times which kept him without a point to his name. Surender Nada and Vishal Mane with two points each were also effective. Only Rajesh Mondal was successful in attack garnering a solitary point for Bengaluru. Shabeer and Anup managed to score three and two respectively in that period wherein the defenders ruled the roost. A high-octane game, the match kept the champions on tenterhooks as Ajay Thakur of Bengaluru came up with a five point super raid to inflict an all-out against the Mumbai outfit. That was in the 33rd minute and with the scores tied at 23-23 - the script for a pot-boiler. Eventually the argument ended with captain cool Anup Kumar again proving his mettle, making the right moves at the right time even under pressure. Bengaluru put up a tough fight but Mumba went on to consolidate their position with Rishank scoring three points. But Shabeer’s dismissal turned the tide in favour of the Bulls. Though Joginder was out at the same time the Bulls managed to claw back with substitute Rakesh Narwal netting two raid points. Manjeet got one and then came Ajay’s first points of the match. That was the 33rd minute. In hindsight that belated act of Ajay should have come a bit early. Shabeer returned the compliment and Mumba were back on the recovery path. Manjeet tried his best to shore up his team’s chances but it came too late. As Bengaluru stumbled , Anup and Shabeer kept the score ticking to boost their side to 29-24 and 30-25. Manjeet went in to touch out Jeeva Kumar, Mohit, Surender Nada, Anup, Vishal Mane and Jeeva in that order in six Successive raids but it all went in vain. Finally the battle of the defences was won by Mumba who showed their depth in both departments. Add to that the brains of Anup who kept his cool and at the same time came up with on the spot decisions which made the difference. Runners up captain of the Bengaluru Bulls, Manjeet Chhillar was frank and honest. “I was happy with the way my boys performed today – they gave their heart to the game. Yes, we lost but it was a great match and the best final match one could have expected. We will be back next year.” Victorious captain Anup Kumar looked ecstatic at the win. “Shabeer Bapu gets all the credit for the win because of his super raid and that turned the match. The Mumbai crowd were brilliant and we thank them so much for their support. We won because of that tonight. Manjeet is a good all-rounder and a good player. Whatever plan we had for him didn’t work and he played well. The celebrations were intense because we have been waiting for 1 year to win this trophy and now we have won it.” The prize money for the winners, U Mumba, was Rs 1 crore. The runners-up, Bengaluru Bulls were awarded a prize money amount of Rs 50 lakhs. The second runners-up (3rd place) team were Telugu Titans who were awarded a prize amount of Rs 30 lakhs with the third runners up being awarded a prize money amount of Rs 20 lakhs. TOURNAMENT AWARDS D.A.E. RISING STAR OF STAR SPORTS PRO KABADDI SEASON 2 – SANDEEP (TELUGU TITANS) The youngster of the young team of Star Sports Pro Kabaddi, Sandeep has adapted to the big stage of Indian kabaddi like a fish to water. In a team that operates with an aggressive approach, Sandeep’s ankle holds have given the freedom to attack to the Titans’ star raider in Rahul Chaudhari and Meraj Sheykh. The lanky lad has a death grip which is his go-to move to detain raiders and his long legs give him the grip to contain dangerous opposition raiders. With 55 successful tackles, Sandeep proves the adage of youthful enthusiasm over experience and is sure to be part of India’s bright kabaddi future. STAR SPORTS RAIDER OF THE TOURNAMENT – KASHILING ADAKE (DABANG DELHI) Kashiling Adake lit up Season 2 of Star Sports Pro Kabaddi unlike any other raider in the tournament finishing the tournament with 114 points. His classic manoeuvre was the ‘touch and roll’ which he employed to full use especially in a full opposition defence. His celebrations and expressions livened up the matches and inspired his teammates to perform to their best. Particularly in one match against Telugu Titans, Kashiling fought valiantly and secured a draw for his team by staving off an all-out for almost ten minutes single handedly. He also created the record for most points in a single match by a raider with 24 points including three super raids. He may not have been able to take his team to the playoffs but he won hearts and captivated minds all over India with his undying love and performance in the Dabang Delhi jersey. STAR SPORTS DEFENDER OF THE TOURNAMENT – RAVINDER SINGH PAHAL (DABANG DELHI) The captain of Dabang Delhi, Ravinder Singh Pahal held the Delhi defence together with his timely tackles and brilliant strategy. Although he wasn’t able to push his team into the playoffs, it showed how important his presence on the court was during his team’s games. His favourite move was the waist hold and when that was put into use, no opposition raider was able to escape that iron hold. His swagger and style charmed many a fan and deceived many a raider. MAHINDRA MOST VALUABLE PLAYER OF THE TOURNAMENT – MANJEET CHHILLAR (BENGALURU BULLS) The bull of Bengaluru Bulls, Manjeet Chhillar is an extremely colourful character and an aggressive captain. He plays with his heart on his sleeve and doesn’t mind expressing his emotions completely. He has been at the heart of the Bengaluru Bulls defence and orchestrating his raiders and strategy with astute leadership. Even though he suffered heartbreak by losing to U Mumba in the finals, he has a never say die attitude and that is the most important characteristic about Manjeet.

    Four teams, two matches and all eyes on one prize – the Star Sports Pro Kabaddi trophy and the chance to become Star Sports Pro Kabaddi champions. The top four teams in Season 2 of Star Sports Pro Kabaddi – U Mumba, Telugu Titans, Bengaluru Bulls and Patna Pirates have fought it out with their sweat and tears after 60 matches of intense action over 32 days. But while those results have helped them get to this stage, it all boils down to one single moment for these players- The #FinalPanga. How have these four teams made it till this final hurdle – who were their star players and will they be able to step up on the big stage to make it till the end? U MUMBA The table toppers hold a highly impressive record in Season 2 with a record number of wins for a single team with 12 out of 14 matches. They have an abundance of riches which they exhibited through their equally good bench strength. They have a super star in Captain Anup Kumar. He has a steadying and calming influence on his players as he guides them successfully through any crisis. On many occasions U Mumba made successful comebacks with Anup himself leading from the front. Anup has got immense help from Rishank Devadiga the find of the last season. He has now become one of the foremost players who can be trusted for the do-or-die third empty raids. Anup and Rishank are capable defenders too, especially when it comes to supporting the main defenders Mohit Chhillar (36 tackle points) and Surendra Nada (28 tackle points), who are the right and left corners and central defender Jeeva Kumar (27 tackle points), known for his gutsy and timely tackles.

  • 21 August 15 U Mumba Entered the Finals of the Second Season of Star
    21 August 15 U Mumba entered the finals of the second season of Star Sports Pro Kabaddi with a comfortable 35-18 win over Patna Pirates at the Dome @SVP, NSCI here in Mumbai. It was a team effort by the winning team, with Anup Kumar yet again marshalling his resources like a true leader. The match saw Surender Nada and Mohit Chhillar, unleashing their ruthlessness while effecting tackle after tackle on the relatively inexperienced Patna raiders. Surender came up with 10 tackle points with one super tackle, a record for a defender. The winners fielded Shabeer Bapu Sharfudeen who too impressed in the important first session. It also proved his level of fitness for the decisive battle on Sunday when UMumba face the Bengaluru Bulls. The winners led 22-6 at the breather after inflicting two all-outs by the 11th minute and 19th minute. Patna on their part just couldn’t put up a fight as their rivals raced at break neck speed. Rishank Devadiga scored four points including a bonus, Anup came up with three and Shabeer with four to make things easy for their team. After having established a stranglehold on the match, U Mumba never relented in the second half. They even stared at an all-out but they managed to pull themselves out. At 23-10 and just three men on court in the 25th minute they were in deep trouble. But Jeeva Kumar who was also one of the pillars in U Mumba’s defence came up with a super tackle on Deepak Narwal to turn the tide.

  • 11 August 2015 There Are Places That Are Known for Being
    11 August 2015 There are places that are known for being producing some of the greatest sportspersons this world has ever seen. In India itself, the city of Mumbai is known for two of India’s greatest cricketers in Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar. But when it comes to the ancient Indian sport of kabaddi, Haryana takes that particular mantle. Kabaddi, not yet recognised as an Olympic sport, has been played at the Asian level with India dominating it at the Asian Games since it was first played at Beijing in 1990. This has strengthened its roots especially in the rural areas and the sport being known as –‘hamari maati ka khel’ is now fast gaining popularity all over the country owing to the creation of an action packed and entertaining format in Star Sports Pro Kabaddi. With names like Manjeet Chhillar (captain of Bengaluru Bulls) and Mohit Chhillar (a defender from U Mumba) grabbing the headlines in the sports pages with their thrilling performances and breath-taking tackles, these men and other players who also come from the state of Haryana and participate in Star Sports Pro Kabaddi have put their state on the sports map of India. While there is a need for organisation of the sport especially at the grass root level, this hasn’t affected the huge pool of talent that is unearthed every year with the allure of Star Sports Pro Kabaddi encouraging more fresh faces to join the sport. Taking one village as an example in Nizampur on the outskirts of Delhi and household names like Manjeet Chhillar, Anup Kumar (captain of U Mumba) and even Rakesh Kumar (Patna Pirates) are just a few of the many kabaddi players who can boast of being from Nizampur.
