Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5: 5 biggest controversies so far in PKL 5

The Pro Kabaddi League began in 2014 to a lot of fanfare and ever since, it's produced multiple breathtaking moments on the mat. However, unlike the previous editions, season 5 is proving to be one hell of a ride for players, referees and fans alike.

You could make an extensive list of all the unsavory moments that have dominated the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Let's take a look at five of the most controversial moments so far in Season 5.

#1 Anup Kumar vs Jasvir Singh

Anup Kumar lost his cool, not on one but two occasions. Take a moment for that to sink in. U Mumba's captain has rarely been flustered like he has this season, that too on his home turf. The Mumbai leg of the PKL saw the Jaipur Pink Panthers battle U Mumba twice within a span of six days and both the matches went right down to the wire.

However, rather than the results, it was Jasvir's antics and Anup's reactions that turned heads. Singh was constantly engaged in verbal altercations with U Mumba and Kumar didn't like it one bit, openly expressing his disgust at Jaipur's experienced campaigner.
