Pardeep Narwal is regarded as the most successful player in Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) history. Since his debut in 2015, Narwal has recorded 1,690 raid points in 170 games, with 85 Super 10s and 75 super raids.
Narwal is often called the 'Dubki King' due to his ability to go past the hands of the defenders. He won three consecutive PKL titles with the Patna Pirates from 2016 to 2018.
Narwal has replicated his PKL form on the international arena as well. He helped the Indian team clinch gold medals in 2016 Kabaddi World Cup, 2017 Asian Kabaddi Championship and 2018 Kabaddi Masters Dubai.
