Telugu Titans registered a 37-28 win over Patna Pirates courtesy a brilliant performance from Vijay Malik in the Pro Kabaddi League in Chennai on Tuesday.
Malik was unstoppable on the night, scoring a Super 10. This is Telugu Titans’ third win in a row, which has helped them move into the top three.
Patna Pirates’ Ayan Lohchab also shone with a Super 10 of his own, keeping his side in the contest with some fine raids. However, his efforts were not enough as the Titans played a strong all-round game and held their nerve in the crucial moments to secure the victory.
Telugu Titans opened the game in style, with Avi Duhan pulling off a brilliant Super Tackle to get the first points on the board. Soon after, Vijay Malik added to the tally with a successful
raid, giving the Titans a 2-0 lead.
However, Patna Pirates struck back quickly as Ayan completed a fine raid to put his team on the scoreboard. The Titans, though, showed good determination and continued to push ahead, building a 3-point lead within the first six minutes of play.
The Pirates worked hard to close the gap and managed to bring the score down to 8-7, but the Titans still held a narrow one-point advantage when the first-half Strategic Time Out was called.
