Bengaluru
The high-flying raider secured another Super 10 (17 raid points) as a complete performance from the season 6 winner helped it clinch its first home win of the season against a disjointed Thalaiavas unit in front of a packed audience.
A closely contested first half saw both teams matching each other in all departments. Bengaluru captain Rohit Kumar started the proceedings with a classic ‘Dubki’ taking out of Ajay Thakur and Mohit Chhillar.
At the other side, Rahul Chaudhari looked ominous with his raids, despite wasting a review on a Bonus Point. The defenders slowly got into the game as the half progressed with Amit Sheoran and Mahender Singh stepping up their game with confidence-boosting tackles.
Manjeet Chhillar and Mohit Chhillar looked in good form too, despite two silly errors by the former allowing easy points for Rohit Kumar. The first half ended with scores 14-13 in favour of the home side.
