Pro Kabaddi 2018: Gujarat Fortunegiants hold Dabang Delhi, Telugu Titans beat Tamil Thalaivas to second loss on the trot

Ajay Thakur responded with a two-point raid of his own for Thalaivas as they led 5-4. Both teams traded tackle and raid points in the next couple of minutes as it was 9-9 after 14 minutes.

Telugu Titans inflicted the first all out of the match in the 17th minute as they led 16-9. Ajay Thakur made a successful raid in the 20th minute as Tamil Thalaivas ended the first half trailing 11-17.

Manjeet Chhillar was a rock at the back for Tamil Thalaivas as they mounted a comeback in the second half. After 25 minutes, Telugu Titans led 21-16 and the match hung in balance.

The fatigue was showing on Tamil Thalaivas as they played their third match in three days. Telugu Titans were the fitter team with their defence and raiders looking sharper.

It was a Titans Tuesday Tho for Rahul Chaudhari’s team as they maintained their composure in the last few minutes of the match and didn’t give Thalaivas a chance to make a comeback.

Amit Hooda attained a high five in the last minute of the match but it wasn’t enough. Tamil Thalaivas made critical errors throughout the match and crashed to 28-33 defeat.

In Wednesday’s matches, U Mumba will face Jaipur Pink Panthers whereas Tamil Thalaivas will take on Bengaluru Bulls.
