India Claims World Kabaddi Crown for Women; Men’s Showdown with England Intensifies at 2025 World Kabaddi Championship

India Clinches Women’s Kabaddi World Cup 2025 Title, Vanessa Nau, our sports correspondent, reports:

For the second consecutive time, India has lifted the Women’s Kabaddi World Cup title, defeating England 57-34 in the championship match at Wolverhampton, England. This impressive victory comes on the heels of India’s men’s team securing a spot in the finals, where they will face off against England later today. This year’s tournament sees top teams from around the world, including Europe and Asia, battle it out for the coveted title.

The women’s final was a dominating display by the Indian team, who outplayed England in every department. The match was a far cry from the men’s semifinal’s scorecard, where India dispatched Wales 93-37. England, on the other hand, secured its position in the finals by dispatching Scotland 37-28. Despite this impressive run, Scotland will take home the bronze medal after defeating Wales 67-56 in the third-place match.

This year’s tournament marks the first time the Kabaddi World Cup is being held outside of Asia. Teams from across the West Midlands region of England, including matches in Birmingham, Coventry, Walsall, and Wolverhampton, have been participating in the competition. The inaugural edition of the tournament was hosted in Malaysia in 2019, where India took home both the men’s and women’s titles.

As the men’s team prepares to take on England in tonight’s final, all eyes will be on England to maintain their 100% win record, having emerged from the tournament without a loss or a tie. Will they manage to keep their undefeated streak alive? Only time will tell, as the competition reaches its thrilling conclusion.

India’s second consecutive title is testament to the country’s growing prowess in the sport, and fans are eagerly anticipating the men’s final to see if the team can make it a clean sweep. The action-packed competition has been entertaining from start to finish, with each match showcasing the skill and determination of the world’s top kabaddi teams.
