Do or die raids play a crucial role in reviving the team's lost momentum back to the game where comebacks are usually assured. Ajay Thakur, the finest do or die specialist of Pro Kabaddi lacked answers in the Chennai leg.

Ajay Thakur scored 5 points in do or die situations in 5 matches only. Ajay considered hand touches on the covers rather than taking bonus points underneath the corner defender as the pressure of reviving the players back was immense. As Sukesh Hegde couldn't participate in a single match, Ajay was left out alone in criticality.

Thalaivas occasionally sent Jasvir Singh into the do or die raids, however, Jasvir failed because of his short height and inability to take a touch as the timer runs down. The team had no choice but to pay Jasvir as Surjeet and Sukesh were unavailable.

Tamil Thalaivas showed no signs of a comeback as they failed frequently with their raiding unit.
