featuring victories over Jaipur Pink Panthers, Haryana Steelers, and Gujarat Giants.
Puneri Paltan consolidated second place by defeating Jaipur Pink Panthers and U Mumba, also making their top-eight status all but certain. Telugu Titans rode strong form to third after downing UP Yoddhas and Haryana Steelers. Despite a split week, U Mumba stayed fourth.
Bengaluru Bulls ended Chennai on a high by beating Tamil Thalaivas to sit fifth. The Thalaivas, who stunned Patna Pirates, are sixth. Haryana Steelers' skid continued with losses to Delhi and the Titans, dropping them to seventh. Jaipur suffered back-to-back defeats to slip to eighth. Gujarat Giants' win over UP Yoddhas lifted them to ninth, while UP slid to tenth. Bengal Warriors shocked Delhi but were routed by U Mumba and sit 11th. Patna Pirates remain bottom with just three wins from 11.

With the final leg shifting to Delhi, the scramble to finish in the top four-and avoid the play-ins-intensifies. Delhi and Puneri look safe; the mid-table trio of Bengaluru, Tamil Thalaivas, and Telugu Titans are jostling for seeding. For UP Yoddhas, Bengal Warriors, and Patna Pirates, a late-season surge is now a necessity.
