The other challenge for Pawan would be Delhi’s two covers - Vishal Mane and Anil Kumar - who have been prone to loose tackles. However, teams have figured out that using the covers is the best way of stopping Pawan. Delhi used the same approach in their second meeting. After Ravinder Pahal, Vishal Mane has tackled Pawan the most number of times in Pro Kabaddi 2019.

Best Defender: Mahender Singh
