PKL 12: Super-sub Ankit Rana Stars As Patna Pirates Hand Dabang Delhi First Defeat Of Season
Pro Kabaddi League: It was a stunning fourth quarter by Patna Pirates that defined their win over Dabang Delhi K.C., beating them 33-30 in the second leg of Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) Season 12 at the SMS Indoor Stadium in Jaipur on Saturday. Substitute Ankit Rana led the comeback win in style with his 12 raid points, as they ended the Season 8 champions' winning streak.
Dabang Delhi K.C. looked composed in the opening 10 minutes, with Neeraj Narwal and Ajinkya Pawar driving their momentum. Neeraj’s clever raids and Pawar’s Do-Or-Die success gave Dabang Delhi an early cushion. Backed by the defensive presence of Fazel Atrachali and Saurabh Nandal, they tightened the screws on the Pirates’ raiders.
The Pirates, though, kept snapping at their opponents’ heels with timely contributions. Ayan and Sudhakar chipped in with raid points to keep the scoreboard moving. Navdeep and Ankit’s tackles provided defensive resistance, ensuring the gap didn’t widen. But at the 10-minute mark, Dabang Delhi were firmly in control with a handy 4-point lead.
