What is Bonus line in Kabaddi?

A line one metre beyond the baulk line in each half. When the defending team has six or seven players on the mat, a raider earns one bonus point by crossing it with the lead foot grounded beyond the line and the trailing foot in the air. It is not in play against five or fewer defenders.

Example: With the defence at full strength, she picked up a cheeky bonus point and got out before contact.
