FULL-TIME!! UP Yoddhas 37- 42 Patna Pirates

A spirited performance from the young Patna Pirates, who outplayed the experienced UP Yoddhas in a hard-fought contest! While the Yoddhas began strong, holding the lead for the first ten minutes, it was Patna’s stunning dominance in the 11-20 minute stretch that turned the tide. Outscoring the Yoddhas 16-6 in that period, the Pirates established a lead they fiercely guarded until the final whistle.

Devank was once again in fine form with 11 raid points, and Ayan proved invaluable, adding eight raid points and one tackle point. Patna’s defense put in a team effort, with Deepak leading the charge at four tackle points, while Captain Shubham Shinde followed closely with three.

For the Yoddhas, Surender’s early surge faded as the match progressed, and even Bharat couldn’t fully find his rhythm tonight. Gagan Gowda showed flashes with nine raid points, mostly early on, while Hitesh was solid defensively, securing five tackle points but couldn’t get enough backup.

That wraps up a fantastic first game of the night! Stick around as we gear up for the next clash between Telugu Titans and Bengaluru Bulls.

This is Meeth Agrawal, signing off – see you in the next one!
