The teams matched each other raid by raid in an intense first half that saw defenders from both teams not allowing any star raiders to breathe easily. The teams failed to inflict an ALL OUT in the first half that finished 14-13 with Bengal in the lead.

Bengaluru’s Pawan Sehrawat finally came all guns blazing in the early minutes of the second half as he helped the Bulls clinch an ALL OUT in the 4th minute to open a 3-point lead. Sehrawat continued his good work as he got his Super 10 and reduced Bengal to just 1 man on the mat.

However, some dramatic turn of events saw gaming going upside. 

The Bulls thought they secured their second ALL OUT when Bengal’s Mohammad Nabibakhsh was tackled by the entire team. Unfortunately for them, the Warrior’s all-rounder had entered the lobby without a touch, thereby making everyone who followed him out-of-bounds. 

The move resulted in a massive change of momentum as Bengal got 7 points + 1 for the bonus. Chandran Ranjit was the only Bengaluru raider remaining and Abozar Mighani tackled him in the 10th minute to give Bengal an ALL OUT and open a 3-point lead.

Maninder Singh picked up crucial bonus points to ensure Bengal maintained a sizeable lead as the game entered the final minutes. The Bengal defenders kept calm and managed the time perfectly to ensure they won the match by a solitary point.
