Kabaddi is one of the most widely played sports in India and in other parts of the Asian subcontinent. However, the sport never really got its due recognition as it lost out to more `glamorous´ sports like cricket and football.
The game was however a regular feature in many international tournaments like the Asian Games and the South Asian Games. There were also a few Kabaddi World Cup events held. The popularity of the sport skyrocketed after 2014 when the Pro Kabaddi League was established. Operating on the lines of the immensely successful IPL, the Pro Kabaddi League saw 12 franchises competing for the title each year and became one of the most-watched leagues in India.
To cash in on the popularity of kabaddi, many of the top betting sites in India now allow punters to bet on Kabaddi games. Let’s have a look at some of the most popular Kabaddi betting around.
Benefits of using an app over betting sites
While you can always use a betting site to place bets on Kabaddi, using an app has its own advantages. The apps are specifically designed for use on mobile devices and hence provide a better user experience compared to normal sites.
The loading times are reduced considerably. Nowadays many betting apps support security features like Face ID and Touch ID, saving you from entering your user name and password each time you want to log in.
Apps also send you push notifications, alerting you about upcoming events, as well as providing up-to-date information on the bets that you have already placed, as and when they get settled.
