Pardeep Narwal is the top raider in Pro Kabaddi history with 1,801 raid points in 190 matches. The ‘Dubki King’ was the first player to pass 1,000 raid points, and his total is now final: he retired on 2 June 2025 after going unsold at the PKL 12 auction.
Maninder Singh is second with 1,568 in 165 matches, 233 behind. Arjun Deshwal has moved up to third on 1,383 and has the best rate in the top ten, 10.48 raid points a match. Pawan Sehrawat (1,340) and Naveen Kumar (1,120) complete the top five.
The figures below are the league’s official all-time list after PKL 12, which ended with Dabang Delhi K.C. beating Puneri Paltan in the final on 31 October 2025. PKL 13 has not started yet; reports expect it to begin around December 2026, so the list will not move until then.
