It was time for the 2nd
game of the night. Lo and behold the Bengaluru Bulls versus the Patna Pirates.
Bengaluru Bulls were without their star raider Ajay Thakur but this didn’t stop
them from claiming a victory over the Patna Pirates in this tie of the Pro
Kabaddi League 2015. Rakesh Kumar had a point to prove as he had a pointless 1st
game. But that seemed in the past as he was successful in his very 1st
raid and a total of 6 points in the match. Rakesh Kumar, owner of Patna
Pirates, seemed to be a happy man while watching Rakesh Kumar make a successful
raid. Patna Pirates seemed to be confident early on and Sandeep Narwal looked lively
while raiding. Only thing in his way was the Bull himself, Manjeet Chillar, who
threw him out of the court for a brilliant tackle. In the 11th ,
Manjeet Chillar stepped in for a do-or-die-raid and was exquisite in showing
off his dodging abilities to gain his first raid point in his 5th
raid. At the end of the 1st half, Bengaluru Bulls lead by 8 points.
Mohammed Shami was in the stadium to support the Patna Pirates.
Early on in the 2nd half, Sandeep
Narwal was the last man standing for Patna Pirates but was unsuccessful and
thrown out for an all-out. Bengaluru Bulls lead by 13 points at this stage and
were cruising ahead. Patna Pirates did put up a spirited fight late in the 2nd
half but Bengaluru Bulls had more than enough in them and finished off the game
as the score read 31-26. Manjeet Chillar made multiple strong tackles on Rakesh
Kumar but didn’t let him settle and finished with a brilliant tally of 11
points on the night.
