Bengal Warriors 35 - 29 Bengaluru Bulls
A quality game of kabaddi to commemorate the 1000th match of the PKL as the Warriors and Bulls fought tooth and nail, only for the former to pull ahead in the final quarter. Bharat took charge as the Bulls' captain, and his confidence flowed in the first ten minutes as he raced to seven points in six raids, with Maninder matching him. However, Nitin Kumar's back-to-back multi-point raids earned Bengal the all-out as they took a 7-point lead into half-time.
The Bulls came out flying in the 2nd half to enforce an all-out, with Surjeet Singh in sublime form, finishing with four tackle points for the night. However, just as the Bulls held a small 1-point lead midway through the 2nd half, the momentum shifted once more, this time courtesy of an inspired Shubham Shinde in the Bengal right corner.
Bharat's first-half bursts were nowhere to be seen as Shubham kept the Bulls' captain quiet with some outstanding tackles, finishing with 7 tackle points for the night.
In the end, it was Shubham Shinde's defending and better raiding support that won it for Bengal, with Maninder Singh also coming good at a crucial juncture.
Up next, this special day is made more special as the Jaipur Pink Panthers take on U Mumba in a rematch of the first-ever PKL contest! Click here to switch to the coverage of that exciting encounter, and until next time, this is Shreyas bidding you adieu!
