Purpose Indoor Stadium: Patna Pirates registered a convincing 36–28 win over UP Yoddhas at the SDAT Multi-Purpose Indoor Stadium in Chennai on Monday. Coach Randeep Dalal was delighted with the team’s performance and credited the defence for playing a key role in the victory.

He said the team showed great coordination and discipline, especially in defence, which helped them control the match. Dalal also praised the players for sticking to the plan and bouncing back strongly after a few close games, adding that the win will boost their confidence for the upcoming matches.

“It was a convincing game, and I’m happy that the team is back on track. I think our team is strong, and I was confident about our defence. The defence really stepped up and did a great job. Overall, it was a good performance. Yes, we did over-tackle a few times, but that happens. What’s important is that we’re finding our rhythm again. Our captain led well, and the entire defensive unit worked together,” he said.
