Up yoddhas all

Noida Indoor Stadium: The first game of the Noida leg finished as another closely contested clash in PKL season 11, with U Mumba prevailing over the home side UP Yoddhas 35-33 at the Noida Indoor Stadium on Sunday.

Ajit Chouhan and Rohit Raghav (8 points each) were the highest-scoring raiders for U Mumba, as they ensured that Bharat Hooda's Super 10 went in vain.

The home team took a commanding lead early in the first half as the raiders and defenders worked in tandem. This culminated in an impressive All-Out inflicted on U Mumba in just the 14th minute, as the UP Yoddhas took a decisive lead. Shivam Choudhary and Bharat Hooda were the main aggressors and were ably supported by stand-in skipper and left-corner defender Sumit.
