PKL 12: Alireza Ensures First Win Of Season For Bengaluru Bulls
Pro Kabaddi League: The Bengaluru Bulls finally opened their tally in Season 12 of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) after they beat the Patna Pirates 38-30 at the Vishwanadh Sports Club in Visakhapatnam. The clash saw Alireza Mirzaian complete a much-deserved Super 10, well supported by Aashish Malik’s eight points as they bounced back from their three straight losses.
The Pirates and the Bulls got off to a cagey start in the opening 10 minutes, with defences holding firm. Patna stayed ahead, leading 8–6 at the 10-minute mark, thanks to the tackling of Deepak and Sanket Sawant, who combined well. Raider Ayan Lohchab, who eventually scored a Super 10 for the Pirates, chipped in with a few points to give Patna the edge after a slow start.
For the Bulls, raider Ganesha Hanamantagol looked lively, but he was also contained on key occasions, including a tackle by Sawant that stalled the Bulls’ momentum. With Maninder Singh yet to make an impact and the Pirates capitalising on defensive lapses, the opening phase swung slightly in the Pirates’ favour.
