Bengaluru Bulls beat league toppers Jaipur Pink Panthers 41-30 in PKL

NEW DELHI: Rohit Kumar’s impressive show helped defending champions Bengaluru Bulls beat league toppers Jaipur Pink Panthers 41-30 in a Pro Kabbadi League match at the Thyagaraj Complex here on Sunday.
Rohit finished the match with 13 raid points as Bengaluru inflicted a heavy, demoralising loss on the season one champions.
The raiding performance by Rohit Kumar also saw him cross 50 raid points for the season but the game was won by Bulls’ all-round performance that saw their defenders Mahender Singh, Saurabh Nandal and Mohit Sehrawat secure High 5s (5 tackle points) — a first in Pro Kabaddi League history.
The match had been billed as a battle between attack vs defence as the league’s second-best raiding unit Bengaluru Bulls (averaging 19 raid points per match) took on the best defending unit Jaipur Pink Panthers (11.5 tackle points per match).
And it was the raider-heavy side that started the half positively, with captain Rohit impressing in his raids. (AGENCIES)
