7
Explanation
In a standard (Standard Style) Kabaddi match, there are 7 players on the field at a time from each team. During the match, if a player is declared 'out,' they must leave the field of play. Players can return to the court (revive) when their team scores a point or when another team member is put out.
Key Points
A Kabaddi team can have a total squad of 12 players, but only 7 players play 'on the field' (the Playing Seven).
This sport is highly popular, primarily in India and other South Asian countries.
Additional Facts
The Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) also follows standard rules, where 7 players from one team play on the court at a time.
The duration of the match is usually 40 minutes (two 20-minute halves).
