The game is called Kabaddi.

Kabaddi is a traditional sport. Bangladesh has a kabaddi league.

This contact sport pits two teams of seven players against each other on a rectangular court. One player is a raider who scores points by tagging members of the opposition team, without being tackled.

All in a single breath! The aim of the game is for the raider to enter the opponent's half of the field, eliminate as many defenders as possible and return to their own half of the field without breathing!
While raiding, the raider must loudly chant kabaddi, confirming to referees that their raid is done on a single breath without inhaling.
