Bengaluru, Jan 17 (PTI): Surender Gill shone with his raids as UP Yoddha thrashed Puneri Paltan 50-40 in a high-scoring match of Pro Kabaddi League Season 8 in Bengaluru on Monday.<\/p>\n
Gill (21 points) and Pardeep Narwal (10 points) scored Super 10s for Yoddha in a match, which had way too many defensive errors.<\/p>\n
Aslam Inamdar and Mohit Goyat had Super 10s for the Pune side, but they did not get any help from a stuttering defence that conceded far too many points.<\/p>\n
The first half was a high-scoring affair with just one empty raid in the first five minutes. Pardeep Narwal started the proceedings with a three-point Super Raid and that certainly set the tone for the other raiders.<\/p>\n
Inamdar and Goyat combined to help Pune clinch the game’s first ‘All Out’ close to the 10th minute but Yoddha immediately clawed their way back.<\/p>\n
It was raining Super Raids on both sides and Gill’s three-point effort with seven minutes remaining helped Yoddha inflict an ‘All Out’.<\/p>\n
Both the left corners — Pune’s Vishal Bharadwaj and Yoddha’s Sumit — were having an error-prone night and conceded far too many points in the first half that ended 20-20.<\/p>\n
Yoddha started the second half brightly with Gill aggressive in his raids. His four-point Super Raid in the fifth minute paved the way for another ‘All Out’ which helped Yoddha open a seven-point lead.<\/p>\n
He and Pardeep Narwal took turns to eat points away from Pune and eventually got them an ‘All Out’ in the 10th minute.<\/p>\n
Yoddha scored a massive 20 points in the first 10 minutes after the restart to open a 15-point lead. Both Narwal and Gill crossed their Super 10s while Goyat did the same for Pune.<\/p>\n
Inamdar manufactured a three-point Super Raid in the 12th minute of the second half to spark a comeback. But Pune’s defenders were having a night to forget with Gill picking points with ease.<\/p>\n
Despite Inamdar and Goyat’s best attempts, Pune could not close the gap as Yoddha clinched a valuable win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
