UP Yoddhas continued their dominant run of form, beating Bengaluru Bulls 57-36 in their second encounter, but couldn't make it three wins in three as they slumped to a 29-32 defeat against Bengal Warriorz.

On the other hand, Gujarat Giants failed to ride on the newfound wave of confidence after a win in their season opener.

The contrasting results in the season see them placed eighth in the points table, with six points to their name and a points difference of -2. Big names in the set up like Guman Singh will have to step up in this contest and make a difference for them.
