FT: Gujarat Giants 37-44 Bengaluru Bulls

It was always a high-scoring match involving these two teams but the Bulls strike at the right time to emerge victorious in this encounter. They had momentum throughout the contest, while the Giants fought well but their defense failed to raise to the occasion yet again. That third all-out in the second half helped the Bulls to take firm control of the match

The unstoppable Bharat registered yet another super 10 and he got good support from Vikas Kandola and Neeraj Narwal. Gujarat's attacking front has been superb tonight as Chandran Ranjit and Parteek picked up a super 10, but they have to rectify their defensive mistakes going forward

The Bulls' defenders are charged up at the back end as they pull off two tackles successfully
Priyank suffers a nasty injury and he's been stretched out. Hope there is nothing serious about the injury and he recovers very soon

HT: Gujarat Giants 22-26 Bengaluru Bulls

These two teams played a high-scoring thriller in the last game, and the first half didn't disappoint us either as they successfully inflicted an all-out inside the first 15 minutes. Bengaluru inflicted a fastest all-out this season as they cleaned out the Giants inside five minutes. However, the response came straightaway as Parteek's stunning multi-point raids helped the Giants to inflict an all-out

 Bengaluru's attack led by Bharat continued to put the Giants' defense under the pump as they inflict another all-out to take a 5-point lead.

Well, the raiders from both teams are striking for fun as we witnessed 32 raid points so far. Will it be the same story in the final 20 minutes? Let's find out shortly

Hello and welcome to the LIVE coverage of the PKL 2022 match between Gujarat Giants and Bengaluru Bulls

Bengaluru Bulls have lost four matches this season so far and one of those losses came against the Giants surprisingly. It was a high-scoring thriller last time when these two teams faced, and Parteek's heroic raids were instrumental for the Giants to reign supreme on that day.

Parteek hasn't featured for the Giants since that match-winning performance against the Bulls, and we are yet to know whether he will be ready in time for this clash. Gujarat's defense under-performed in recent matches, and their task only gets harder when they face an in-form Bharat and Neeraj Narwal.
