It was the Yoddhas defence, who, in the early stages, looked impenetrable and had Delhi on the ropes. They initiated the first ALL OUT of the game with just seven minutes gone to take a commanding 11-4 lead.&nbsp;At the other end Gill constantly picked up points for the Yoddhas and ensured they built on their commanding lead. At 18-10 they inflicted another ALL OUT, making it seem like the contest was all but over, with barely a quarter of the game gone. And yet, Delhi kept chipping away, Naveen constantly getting bonus points with almost every raid. In the dying seconds of the first half, with the last raid, Manjeet pulled off a SUPER RAID catching four UP Yoddhas to ensure his team had reduced the deficit going into half time.&nbsp;Manjeet's SUPER RAID galvanised the Delhi team out of a stupor, and they came into the second half a different unit completely, dominating the proceedings from the word go. UP Yoddhas' blushes were saved, only because of the brilliance of Surender Gill, whose two successful raids as the last man on the mat ensured his team didn't suffer an ALL OUT.&nbsp;

The Jaipur Pink Panthers continued their brilliant form after picking up their fourth successive victory, this time beating Bengal Warriors 39-24 in the Pro Kabaddi League Season 9 at the Shree Kanteerava Indoor Stadium in Bengaluru on Tuesday. Arjun Deshwal was the star for the Panthers yet again, recording another Super 10 in the competition.While raiders Arjun Deshwal and V Ajith stood up for the Jaipur Pink Panthers, Deepak Hooda and Shrikant Jadhav kept picking up raid points for the Bengal Warriors in the first few minutes of the match. However, the Panthers stepped on the pedal and gained a three-point lead at 10-7 in the 13th minute. Moments later, Ajith reduced the Warriors to two players on the mat. The Panthers tackled Hooda in the 14th minute to inflict the first ALL OUT of the match. Soon after, Jaipur caught Maninder Singh and led comfortably at 16-9. The Panthers held an eight-point lead at 20-12 at the end of the first half.The Warriors showed more urgency in the second half through a raid by Shrikant Jadhav and a tackle by Shubham Shinde, but Deshwal kept effecting raids to ensure that his team keeps extending its lead. Raider Bhavani Rajput also joined the party as the Panthers attained a massive lead at 25-16. Jaipur Captain Sunil Kumar tackled Jadhav in the 31st minute as the Panthers inflicted another All Out. Deshwal kept raging on as the Jaipur side eventually closed out a comprehensive victory.Meanwhile, the second fixture saw Aslam Inamdar's last-gasp raid gift Puneri Paltans a second win of Season 9 with a 26-25 victory over Telugu Titans. Both sides fought neck-to-neck in the last few minutes of the match until Inamdar held his nerve and took his team over the line.A cautious start by both teams led to a slow low scoring first half. The pick of the raiders was Puneri Paltan's Mohit Goyat, whose constant touchpoints kept the Titans on their toes, but never really put them in true danger of an All Out. Throughout the first half, Puneri's defensive output almost matched their raiders. It was only Siddharth Desai's penchant for getting bonus points that kept the Titans in the hunt. The teams went into the break with Paltan leading 11-9.Paltan raced out of the blocks in the second half, and within just a few minutes had issued the first All Out of the game, their defence catching out the last man Monu Goyat on a raid to rack up a 16-11 lead. Despite Desai picking up some crucial points, and constantly remaining a thorn in the Paltan defenders' flesh, the Titans never actually managed to seriously dent the lead too much.With barely a quarter of the game left, the Titans suddenly started to pull the lead back. It started off with a brilliant super tackle by Surjeet Singh on Mohammad Nabibaksh to cut the lead down to three. On their next raid, Vinay's super raid caught out three Paltan players — Mohit Goyat, Rakesh Ram, Sanket Sawant — and a bonus, as the Titans rushed into a 22-21 lead — the first time they did so in the match.From there the game turned into a close contest, both teams upping the level of the game to give the fans in the stadium a real show. A breathless affair culminated in a final minute with the Paltan leading by one single point 25-24. On the Titans' last raid, Desai got the bonus point to tie the game. With one second left, it all fell on Paltan's Aslam Inamdar to salvage something from the game. A crucial error, by Monu Goyat, meant the Puneri Paltan got the point they needed to notch their second win of the season. &nbsp;

The Yoddhas got a third ALL OUT to widen their lead at 37-16 and at that time, the game effectively was over for the Bulls.&nbsp;Playing for pride, the Bulls picked up the quality of their game, and initiated an ALL OUT of their own.
