Explanation

Kabaddi. In Kabaddi, defenders use techniques like ankle hold and knee hold to stop the raider by gripping the ankle or knee, requiring speed, balance, and teamwork. Key terms include tackle (stopping the raider), bonus point (crossing the bonus line), lona/all-out (when the entire team is out), and super raid (scoring three or more points in a single raid).
