Sr National Kabaddi: Maharashtra, Haryana, Services Advance In Dominant Fashion
Senior National Kabaddi Championships: Defending champions Haryana led top contenders Maharashtra, Services, and Punjab into the quarterfinals as the knockout stages of the 71st Senior National Kabaddi Championships kicked off with four compelling Round of 16 clashes at Cuttack's Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium, setting up two mouth-watering quarterfinal encounters.
Defending champions Haryana, who were guided by star PKL players like defender Yogesh Kathuniya and raider Ashu Malik, were pushed hard by Tamil Nadu in what proved to be the most competitive fixture of the day. Despite Tamil Nadu's spirited resistance, Haryana's superior raiding unit helped them secure a 48-41 victory in a high-scoring encounter.
The Naveen Kumar-led Services demonstrated why they remain one of the tournament favourites with a clinical dismantling of Madhya Pradesh. The servicemen's potent combination of disciplined defense and aggressive raiding proved too much for Madhya Pradesh to handle, resulting in a commanding 57-22 scoreline.
