Jaipur Pink Panthers and Patna Pirates secured crucial victories in the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2024 on Saturday (November 30).
Patna Pirates, with the victory, are sitting 3rd in the PKL 2024 points table with 47 points in 14 matches. On the other hand, the Pink Panthers are sitting 5th in the table with 46 points in 15 matches.

The Jaipur Pink Panthers delivered an electrifying performance at the Noida Indoor Stadium on Saturday, defeating the Telugu Titans 41-28 in a thrilling PKL Season 11 encounter. Despite trailing for most of the first half, the Panthers mounted a stunning comeback, led by the brilliance of Arjun Deshwal and Neeraj Narwal.
The game started cautiously, with both teams testing the waters. The Titans gained the upper hand early on, thanks to a two-point raid by Vijay Malik, who completed his Super 10 in the first half. Arjun Deshwal, however, achieved a personal milestone, becoming the second-youngest player in PKL history to cross 1100 raid points. The Panthers clawed their way back into the game with an ALL OUT in the dying moments of the first half, leveling the score at 18-18.
The second half belonged to the Panthers as Arjun Deshwal and Neeraj Narwal continued to pile on the pressure. Deshwal registered his Super 10 in the 27th minute, while Narwal's three-point raid sealed the game for Jaipur. The Telugu Titans fought hard, with Vijay Malik scoring 17 points, but it wasn't enough to stop Jaipur from securing a decisive victory.
The Patna Pirates showcased their championship pedigree with a resounding 54-29 victory over the Bengaluru Bulls in Noida. Led by their star raiders Devank Dalal and Ayan Lohchab, both of whom notched Super 10s, the Pirates dismantled the Bulls with clinical efficiency. Shubham Shinde's defensive brilliance, highlighted by a High 5, further underlined the team's dominance.
The Pirates started strong, with Ayan Lohchab spearheading the raids, but the Bulls remained competitive early on, thanks to Pardeep Narwal's vintage 'Dubki' and Nitin Rawal's defensive efforts. However, the Pirates turned the tide with their first ALL OUT six minutes before halftime, taking a commanding 22-12 lead.
In the second half, the Pirates inflicted two more ALL OUTs, while Devank and Ayan kept the scoreboard ticking. Although Pardeep Narwal's heroics briefly sparked hope for the Bulls, Shubham Shinde's Super Tackle on Narwal sealed their fate. A final ALL OUT in the dying moments capped off a 25-point victory for the Pirates, solidifying their position as serious contenders this season.
