Pro Kabaddi League 2015 - Bengal Warriors' inconsequential win over Dabang Delhi, Patna Pirates win to close gap on top 4

Day 21 of Pro Kabaddi League 2015 saw a battle between two teams languishing in the bottom half of the table. Daler Mehndi was also present to view this exciting Indian sport of Kabaddi and performed his own rendition of the national anthem. Arwind Kejriwal was also sitting in support of his home side, Dabang Delhi and was confident enough to predict a win for them. Dabang Delhi took on Bengal Warriors and looked for a win in order to challenge for a top four spot. In their way stood the defense minded Bengal Warriors. The first half was very tight as Dabang Delhi lead by a solitary point at 9-8. The second half was the same as Bengal Warriors chalked out a 20-17 win over Dabang Delhi. Both the sides had their defense earning points for them as they managed to tick the scoreboard. Sachin Khambe and Ravinder Pahal were game changers for their teams in defense. The only consolation for Dabang Delhi was a solitary point for them for not having lost the game by more than seven points. 


The second tie saw Patna Pirates take on Bengaluru Bulls. This seemed to be a night of close contests as Patna Pirates managed to capture this contest 30-28. Bengaluru Bulls took a lead of 3 points into halftime and Manjeet Chillar looked to be on fire. He scored 8 points for a losing cause as there was not much support from his peers. D Suresh Kumar was the hero in defense for Patna Pirates as he supported his captain, Sandeep Narwal, exquisitely to get his side across the finish line. Sandeep Narwal enforced an all-out on the Bengaluru Bulls thanks to two touch points from a single raid. Not even a super raid from Manjeet Chillar could stop his side from being beaten.
