There's not much left to say when it comes to Pardeep Narwal, who has shattered records with each game, making raiding look like child's play. Even on the biggest stage, in this encounter, the Patna skipper rose to the challenge and led his side to victory with 19 points.

After two unsuccessful raids, Pardeep came back with a super raid that wiped out the entire Gujarat defence, laying the foundation for the rest of the men to build on. However, his real talent came to the fore when he picked up three points despite going in as the lone man on the mat for Patna, completely shifting the tide in the champions' favour.
