Naveen Kumar, despite not being in his usual best form, garnered 11 points in 21 raids. Patna’s Pardeep Narwal left everyone stunned after picking up a staggering total of 19 raid points.

The major reason why the other teams could not be so successful as the top six teams is that the defensive unit of these franchises played exceptionally well in the tournament.

Hence, this indicates that the defenders are of utmost importance in the sport of kabaddi for the sole reason that they help in consolidating the lead achieved by the raiders....

At the heart of their impressive performances is the well-known Bhaskaran Edacherry, widely regarded as one of the best kabaddi coaches in the world.

Although Saturday’s match in the Camp Nou Stadium probably won’t have much influence on the destination of the title, which looks certain to remain in Barcelona, there is pride at stake and even more so for Real Madrid after the Catalans inflicted a painful 4-0 defeat on them on their home turf earlier this season, reports Xinhua news agency. Meanwhile the death of Barcelona legend Johan Cruyff has given the game an extra emotional edge with the home players keen to turn the game into homage to the man responsible for changing the club’s fortunes both as a player and a coach....

Horror is a genre known for its rip-offs. No original idea stays original in that industry for long. Horror tends to move in trends and fads, and the exorcism/possession trend seems like it should have been left in the past by now. It’s still here, but hopefully, a particularly unpleasant jaunt through those familiar catacombs will finally bury it for good.

Sane? Cook tells me his definition of sane may differ from mine, because mine is boring. I guess he’s right. One thing probably not taught at Cook seminars is his interesting history: a current, informal investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (he says there’s nothing to it), a Chapter 7 bankruptcy (discharged) and cease-and-desist orders in several states for selling unregistered securities (he says he didn’t do it). Arizona hit him with a $150,000 penalty for misrepresentation and fraud (not yet paid), plus an order to repay nearly $391,000 to a group of investors (Cook claims that he intends to pay double)....

U.K. newspapers have accused The Prince’s Foundation of offering a Saudi billionaire help to receive a knighthood and citizenship in return for donations. Today, a source told Newsweek that a third senior figure, Chris Martin, executive director (development), has temporarily stepped aside in the wake of the scandal. The prince separately sent a letter offering to meet Russian financier Dmitry Leus after a donation of around $1.4 million (£1 million) only for the money to later be given back over concerns about ethics, The Sunday Times reported....

The prince published print and digital versions of his tell-all memoir on January 10, including a 15-hour-long audiobook recorded in his own voice. The royal’s first literary venture has broken records to become the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time. He undertook a number of high-profile media appearances to publicize it.
