This is the third World Cup title for Indian kabaddi team. On all three occassions they defeated Iran in the final.

Team India has won the Kabaddi World Cup 2016 by defeating Iran. Ajay Thakur-inspired India beat Iran 38-29 to become world champions. 

India, who had defeated Iran in the previous two finals, were trailing 13-18 till half-time but put in a sterling show in the second half to romp home to victory.

India took a 21-20 lead with 11 minutes to go and then extended it to 24-21 with an 'All Out'.

Iran tried hard to get back into the game but the Indian defence juxtaposed with Thakur leading the raids, kept them at bay.
