Gujarat’s Rakesh S and Rakesh Narwal looked good at the start of the game as they helped their team open a 5-point lead in the early minutes with Tamil defenders struggling to find their usual rhythm. But just when the Giants sensed an ALL OUT, Tamil raider Ajinkya Pawar produced a stunning Super Tackle to temporarily shift the balance of play. 

Even though the Thalaivas had the lead, but the momentum was with Gujarat. Mahendra Rajput’s 2-point raid took out Thalaivas’ Sagar and Surjeet Singh in one move, which helped Gujarat clinch an ALL OUT with under 3 minutes remaining for halftime. The teams went into the interval at the score of 17-14 in Gujarat’s favour.

The second half began with raiders from sides looking ruthless and picking points at will. Thalaivas stayed within touching distance of the Giants with their raider Manjeet leading the way and inflicted an ALL OUT to take a 3-point lead. 

The Giants got back into the match when Pradeep Kumar clinched a stunning 3-point Super Raid with just a minute to go. Gujarat got an ALL OUT to take a 1-point lead, but Mohit made the scores level again with a tackle on Mahendra Rajput. 

Gujarat’s Sunil tackled Manjeet followed by a successful raid by Mahendra Rajput got the Giants a stunning last-minute win over Tamil Thalaivas to clinch a crucial win.
