"Raid" is a commonly used term in which Indian sport?
Kabaddi
Kabaddi is correct.
In Kabaddi, a raid is the attacking move in which one player (the raider) enters the opponent's half while chanting "kabaddi" in a single breath, tries to touch one or more defenders and returns to his own half. A successful raid earns points, while the defenders try to tackle the raider. Other kabaddi terms include bonus line, baulk line, tackle and super raid.
Cricket uses terms such as over, wicket and LBW; football uses penalty, offside and corner; hockey uses penalty corner, bully and dribble. 'Raid' is not a playing term in any of them.
