Bengaluru Bulls enter top 3 of Pro Kabaddi 2022 points table
Later in the night, home team Bengaluru Bulls locked horns with the Tamil Thalaivas. Fans at the Shree Kanteerava Indoor Stadium would have witnessed a battle between the Bulls and their former player Pawan Sehrawat had the Tamil Thalaivas skipper not been injured. Unfortunately, he missed the big game, and his absence hurt the Thalaivas a lot.
Playing under Sagar Rathee's leadership, the Thalaivas could not impress much against the Bulls as they suffered a 28-45 defeat. Courtesy of this result, the Bengaluru Bulls have jumped from eighth to third position in the Pro Kabaddi 2022 points table.
Tamil Thalaivas, on the other hand, have slipped from ninth to 10th position. The Thalaivas have earned only 10 points from their first five matches of the season.
