The 83rd match of VIVO Pro Kabaddi League 2019 saw a number of records being shattered, as Pardeep Narwal and co. absolutely decimated the Tamil Thalaivas. Patna Pirates won the match 51-25 to snap their losing streak this season besides handing the Tamil Thalaivas their biggest loss of season seven.

Since Ajay Thakur did not feature in the starting seven, Rahul Chaudhari and V. Ajith Kumar had the onus of scoring the raid points for Tamil Thalaivas. However, Pardeep Narwal was in full flow and he single-handedly overpowered the entire squad of Tamil Thalaivas.

The fact that Pardeep Narwal scored more points than Tamil Thalaivas' 10 players solidifies the aforementioned statement. Here's a look at the records that tumbled at the Netaji Subash Chandra Bose Indoor Stadium tonight -
