Mumbai Rain: Pro Kabaddi League Matches Postponed

In the wake of incessant rain in Mumbai, the Pro Kabbadi League matches of U Mumba versus Gujarat Fortune Giants and Bengaluru Bulls versus UP Yoddha scheduled for Tuesday (August 29) have been rescheduled to a later date, according to a VIVO Pro Kabaddi League statement. The matches were re-scheduled as the teams were unable to reach the NSCI SVP Stadium on time. The decision was made in consultation with the franchises, Marshal Sports, Star India, AKFI and other key stakeholders.

The Mumbai leg of the tournament has so far received tremendous support from Kabaddi fans who have thronged the Dome -- NSCI SVP Stadium -- to catch their Kabaddi heroes in action.
