Pro Kabaddi 2023 LIVE Score, Match 82: Bengaluru Bulls vs Tamil Thalaivas - PKL 10 Live Updates and Commentary

FULL-TIME! Bengaluru Bulls 28 - 45 Tamil Thalaivas

You say dominance, I hear Tamil Thalaivas!
What a beautiful way to mark their comeback in the tournament as they register a 17 point win over Bengaluru Bulls here on the first game of Day 3 in the Gachibowli Stadium, Hyderabad.

The raiders of Thalaivas were on the roll today and the Bull's defenders had absolutely no clue on how to stop the rampage. Both Narender and Ajinkya scored a SUPER 10 each and were easily ticking off the scoreboard. The defense was equally great as both the corner defenders Sagar and Sahil have now their names in the list of defenders with 50 tackle points this edition! This sums up their performance today as a team and the coach Ashan is a very happy man there.

The Bulls had just one player who constantly scored points while on the mat. Akshit was a star player who scored a SUPER 10 for the Bulls followed by Sushil with six raid points. Its just the two youngsters for the Bulls who showed some intent while all the experienced players have just been overshadowed today.

Surjeet Singh who was expected to be a clutch player for the Bulls goes with just one point under his name while Vikash could not even score one. Bharat again struggles to find his form and the whole team was just not even trying to bring back the game after the first ten minutes of the game.

Tamil Thalaivas will look to maintain the same momentum in the last game of the Hyderabad leg as well when they take on the home team Telugu Titans. Bengaluru Bulls have nothing to lose here and will look to give a comeback and win games at least from the next legs.

With the Thalaivas dominating the first match, switch tabs to follow Shadlou taking on his master Fazel in a cracker of a contest. The second game of the day is an exciting one indeed with Puneri Paltan locking horns against Gujarat Giants. Until we meet again, this is Deepa R signing off for the day. Good night!

Hey and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of the tenth season of the Pro Kabaddi League. We are all set for the day 3 at the Gachibowli Stadium and Bengaluru Bulls are all geared up to take on their fellow southern counter part Tamil Thalaivas.

The Southern Derby will be an exciting clash indeed as both the teams are heading to this game after a win in their previous games. Bengaluru Bulls, registered an upset over the home team Telugu Titans in their previous clash with a huge margin victory. Tamil Thalaivas on the other hand defeated the formidable Patna Pirates in a close encounter which would give them high boost of confidence.

Currently stationed at the ninth spot in the points table, it is a must win for Bulls to keep their hopes alive in surviving for the rest of the tournament. All eyes will be on Akshit who was the emerging player in their last game in their raiding department. Their defense looked very strong and balanced and they will look to utilize that and clinch the win today.

Tamil Thalaivas who are just below the Bulls in the points table are another team who are desperate for a win and comeback. Their defense with Abishek and Sagar looked balanced the other day while Narender would be relied on to get points in the raiding department with the support of Ajinkya Pawar who himself is giving a comeback this edition.

With all these stats and predictions in place, this contest seems to be promising and is expected to go until the very last minute. Sit back and relax as I Deepa R, will take you through all the live action that is about to unfold!
