Question

Why does Ruskin Bond feel that the battle between the two animals was ‘a battle of champions’?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In a clearing beneath the banyan tree, in bright sunshine, they came face to face. The cobra knew only too well that the grey mongoose, three feet long, was a superb fighter, clever and aggressive. But the cobra, too, was a skilful and experienced fighter. He could move swiftly and strike with the speed of light; and the sacs behind his long sharp fangs were full of deadly poison. It was to be a battle of champions.

Or

Both the Cobra and the mongoose came before each other under the Banyan tree. The Cobra was well aware that the mongoose had superb fighting skills.But he himself was also an experienced fighter and had deadly poisonous long sharp teeth.Thus, it was a battle between two champs.
