Arjun picked up his second Super 10 of the season. His first had come against U Mumba, albeit in a losing cause. He had bagged 12 raid points. This time around, he stepped up when it mattered the most for his side.

"DSP Arjun Deshwal 🔥," another fan wrote.
"Arjun Deshwal is called "The Raid machine" for a reason. #PKL12 #TamilThalaivas," a user tweeted.

With Pawan Sehrawat missing, Arjun's performance came as a huge relief for the Thailavas, who needed a win to get their campaign back on track. So far this season, he has scored 29 raid points from three games at an average of 9.66.

"Arjun Deshwal is soo underrated. He's not someone who raids multiple super raids and then vanish... He's Someone who's super consistent with his performance... 10 raid pona 10 points guaranteed ah varum arjun ta.. (10 points are gauranteed in 10 raids)," a tweet read.

"Tamil thalaivas won vs bengal 💃💃🥳 arjunaeee❤️❤️ take my heart congrats team," a fan wrote.

While Arjun dominated on the night, the Thalaivas' defenders played a massive role in their win. They put up an all-round display and backed up Arjun's efforts incredibly well. It came as a pleasant surprise to the fans as the defense was not up to the mark so far this season.

"Tamil thalaivas defense ah ithu 🥵🥵 (Is this Tamil Thalaivas' defense?)," a user wrote.

Ronak scored four tackle points. Aashish and Himanshu scored three tackle points apiece while Suresh Jadhav and Nitesh Kumar chipped in with two tackle points each as the entire defense unit came alive.

Bengaluru Bulls beat Jaipur Pink Panthers in their opening clash of the Jaipur leg. With that, they registered their third win on the bounce and are looking red-hot at the moment.

It will be a massive task for the Thalaivas to stop the Bulls. They will be eager to build on this win and string a few on the trot going forward. So far, the Thalaivas have two wins and as many defeats from four matches.
