That's all for this match. Thanks for tuning into this coverage with me, Saikrishna MD. PKL action returns on Friday with the Hyderabad leg of matches. Until then, adios!
FULL TIME! UP Yoddhas 50 - 31 Dabang Delhi K.C.

The Pune leg of PKL 9 comes to an end with a high-octane encounter. This was a fitting end to the rivalry week; the UP Yoddhas completely outplayed the Dabang Delhi K.C. in all departments today. The Yoddhas didn't miss having Surender Gill this evening, as Pardeep Narwal was excellent throughout the match, showing off his raiding prowess. The Record Breaker amassed 22 points against the Dabangs, while valuable contributions came in from Rohit Tomar, Gurdeep Singh, and Anil Kumar for the winning side. For the Dabangs, Naveen Kumar played second fiddle to Vijay Malik, who picked up a Super 10, but that wasn't enough to challenge an opposition with a different aura this evening. In the end, the UP Yoddhas get those five crucial points to finish off the Pune leg of matches and the rivalry week.

The story of this fixture’s earlier edition was a high-scoring thriller that went down to the wire, but in the end, the Dabangs claimed the victory and the scoreline read 44–42.

The Naveen Express has slowed down a bit, but come Wednesday evening, he'll be raring to finish this phase of the league on a high, for which the performances of the likes of Ashu Malik, Krishan Dhull, and Vishal will be crucial.
