That is the main difference between pakistan and other muslim country. Iran one of the biggest rival of India in kabaddi but off the cour iran is very friendly and indian also love irani players and iranian also likes indian players. Love frmo india #friendsforever
Can't wait for Kabaddi World Cup in October 2016... india became very strong after the Pro Kabaddi League.. kabaddi became very popular too... (mainly bcos of star sports).. 12 teams participating: WC: USA, Canada, UK, Australia, Iran, Poland, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Korea, Japan and Kenya... telecast by star sports and hosted by India.. wow.... can;t wait..
Umpiring level is not up to the mark. It seems like we are watching local tournament match where players tells the umpires that how many players are out.
This just in Justin...India has only 1 silver medals in the sport. We have 22 gold medals in major competitions. Pakistan has beaten India only once in the 1993 SAF Finals. India has beaten Pak 8 times in the finals. In rest of the years, Pakistan didn't even make it to the finals. Bangladesh or Iran did. lol.. Obviously India won...Get your facts straight......

Even 1 and 7 were out(1 tried to grab his ankle see in slow mo and 7 stepped on his hand when touched the crossline),just 2 was the one who didn't touched him.
7 players each. One team raids, raider attempting to grab a touch of a player if possible. If not he at least has to cross the First white line and has to avoid crossing the side lines. If he has managed to touch a player then side line crossing is safe. If the non raiding team player/s are able to keep him from crossing the Mid line then raider is out. When there are all 7 players defending, if the raider touches past the second white line then the Raiding team gets 1 bonus point. If the defending team player touches past the line behind him then he is out and cannot stop the raider even if he stops him it does not count. It would easier to understand when the match is on and someone who knows #Kabaddi is physically around.
Just for the people bringing up Pakistan as India's rivals in Kabaddi.... India's closest rival is Iran. As an analogy for crickets fans, Indian Kabaddi team's record is better than the records of Austalia under Waugh and Ponting and West Indies under Clive Lloyd combined. Not an exaggeration. Check the records yourself..In IKF ratings, India is first, Iran second and Pakistan... well, it isn't in the top 12........Even Nepal is 5th..... :D
Ali Nik Maleki please don't mind us Indians...most of us don't truly know Iranian sporting achievements...I hope Persians don't take offence at comments from my I'll informed countrymen...Iranians have been good at competitive sports.. constantly winning medals at major events...I still remember the match between Argentina and Iran is last football world cup...Iran lost that match courtesy a brilliant strike from Messy..but god that Iranian goalkeeper was brilliant throughout..my heart goes out to him..and Iranian defence....If my memory is not failing me...Iranians created 3 good chances in counter but unfortunately could not convert..if they would have...that match might have a totally different outcome... anyways much respect..majority of Indians like and respect Iranians....
This comment after watching Ind vs Iran Asian games final. Iran has always given tough challenges to Indian team. Last year we lost the throne and this year too, it was a conflict in the finals of Asian games. Good to see that we removed players like Pardeep Narwal, Rahul Chaudhary etc. as International level tournaments are different from Pro Kabaddi league. But Monu Goyat should have been in the team as he is the best ‘Do or Die’ raider.
