The Jaipur leg of Pro Kabaddi 2019 ended tonight with the Telugu Titans registering their biggest win of the season against Jaipur Pink Panthers. The hosts could only win one match in their home leg, thus ending it with a win percentage of 25.
From the home side, Deepak Hooda and Nilesh Salunke dominated the raiding department whereas Sandeep Dhull and Vishal played the lead role in the defence. Dhull scored 10 tackle points in the home leg of Jaipur.
Among the other star players, Patna Pirates skipper Pardeep Narwal set a new benchmark for consistency with 36 raid points in the 2 games he played. He scored 17 raid points against Haryana Steelers and then took 19 raid points versus Dabang Delhi K.C.
Naveen Kumar too continued his streak of Super 10s with 14 raid points against Bengaluru Bulls and 11 raid points in the game versus Patna Pirates. The new captain of Bengaluru Bulls, Pawan Sehrawat, meanwhile, aggregated 28 raid points in 2 matches. He led his team well in both the matches as the defending champions did not lose a single match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium.
Telugu Titans' marquee raider, Siddharth Desai pulled off two memorable performances in Jaipur, scoring 37 raid points in 2 games and Bengal Warriors captain, Maninder Singh scored 36 points to ensure that Bengal Warriors qualify for the playoffs.
Among the defenders, Vishal Bhardwaj could score only 3 points in 2 matches but U.P. Yoddha's corner defender, Sumit took a High 5 against Tamil Thalaivas.

Most Raid Points
Pardeep Narwal has replaced Pawan Sehrawat as the number 1 raider of the tournament but the difference between the two players is only of one point now. Naveen Kumar too is inching closer while Maninder Singh and Siddharth Desai will definitely cross the milestone of 200 raid points soon.
