New Delhi, 6 Feb: Tamil Thalaivas edged out UP Yoddhas 32-25 to stay afloat in the race to the Pro-Kabaddi League (PKL) play-offs here on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Thalaivas’ star raider Narender scored an impressive ‘Super 10’, while the team skipper and star defender Sahil Gulia got a ‘high five’, as they moved to eighth in the points table, just two places below the play-off spots.<\/p>\n
Yoddhas took an early lead as Gagana Gowda and Mahipal combined for seven raid points.<\/p>\n
For the Thalaivas, Narender was their main raider, but he did not get much support from his teammates.<\/p>\n
Just as the Yoddhas were taking a decisive lead, the Thalaivas raiders upped the ante.<\/p>\n
While Narendar was their main threat, Sahil Gulia did well in the left corner with a ‘high five’ as the team went into the first half with a 21-16 lead.<\/p>\n
In the second half, the Yoddhas scored two consecutive points, putting the Tamil side in a ‘super tackle’ situation.<\/p>\n
However, Himanshu ensured that they made up the points by scoring in a do-or-die raid. This gave the Thalaivas some momentum as they scored two consecutive points.<\/p>\n
After losing the lead to the Thalaivas, the Yoddhas tried their best to come back into the game.<\/p>\n
Anil Kumar and Mahipal both had successful raids, but their defenders were unable to keep the Thalaivas’ raiders out of the points.<\/p>\n
Narender kept his form up to complete his ninth ‘Super 10’ of the season as the Thalaivas took an unassailable lead. (PTI)<\/p>\n
