Well, well, well - what have you done U Mumba? They had a 13-point lead going into the second half and the final result shows them having lost the fixture by a massive 10 points. What started off as a dream game for them has suddenly turned into a nightmare. What a performance from the Bulls - they will surely remember this in the years to come. Inspired by Bharat and a sudden resurgence in the defense, the Bulls quite literally bulldozed their way back into the contest.

Bengaluru Bulls 16-24 U Mumba
HALF TIME! Bengaluru Bulls 11-24 U Mumba

Whew! What has happened there? The Bulls have been absolutely blown away and in front of their home crowd too! U Mumba set the tone for the game early as Guman Singh put in a super raid to begin proceedings. From there on, it was usual business for them as they mercilessly pounced upon raider after raider and chipped away at the Bulls, inflicting the all-out not once but twice within fifteen minutes. The Bulls were helpless as they were picked off one by one. Every single player in the U Mumba line-up contributing while the same cannot be said for the Bulls. The corners have zero tackle points and so does Rajnesh. Just two tackle points for them as opposed to U Mumba's eight and that is where the difference is turning out to be. However, the sport accords for great comebacks and one all-out is what it will take for the Bulls to wipe out this lead if they play it smartly. Plenty to look forward to in the second half. Will U Mumba get a hat-trick of wins or will the Bulls bounce back in style? Stick around to find out!

Toss Update:

Bengaluru Bulls have won the toss and chosen court. U Mumba to raid first!
Well, no Rinku Sharma in the U Mumba line-up and perhaps he might be carrying a niggle due to which he is rested. Plenty of games in this tournament and the teams would rather be safe than sorry. A very able substitute in Rahul Sethpal takes his place while Harendra Kumar is promoted to be the stand-in vice captain of the side. 

As for the Bulls, Rajnesh gets a look-in for the right cover position and it will be interesting to see how he can perform against U Mumba, who's main raider - Guman Singh - is a left raider while Jai Bhagwan can raid from both sides as well. 
Teams:

U Mumba:

Starters: Guman Singh, Surinder Singh (c), Harendra Kumar, Ashish, Jai Bhagwan, Rahul Sethpal, Mohit. 
Substitutes: Heiderali Ekrami, Shivansh Thakur, Rupesh, Satywan, Pranay Rane, Kiran Magar, Shivam. 

Bengaluru Bulls:

Starters: Vikash Kandola, Rajnesh, Mahender Singh (c), Bharat, Neeraj Narwal, Saurabh Nandal, Aman. 
Substitutes: Harmanjit Singh, Sachin Narwal, Rajesh Narwal, Mayur Kadam, Narender Hooda, Nageshor Tharu, More GB. 
Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of the Pro Kabaddi League 2022. The thirty-third match of the tournament will pit Season 2 champions U Mumba against Season 6 champions Bengaluru Bulls at the Shree Kanteerava Indoor Stadium, Bengaluru. 

The Bulls and U Mumba both find themselves sitting in the middle of the table, with three wins and two losses apiece from the five games that they have been a part of. The Bulls' superior net run-rate trumps U Mumba and that has resulted in them being placed fifth in the points table as opposed to U Mumba's sixth. A win in this contest will see the victorious side leap upto the third position. 

U Mumba have largely been underrated this season. They have had a young side at their disposal and have made the maximum use of it, coming out all guns blazing and adopting an aggressive approach especially in the defense department. Surinder Singh has led from the front while Guman Singh has come into his own as well after starting off slowly initially. Jai Bhagwan has played his role as a second raider but U Mumba will have to take a look into who will support that duo. They have been leaking bonus points in the left corner area and perhaps Mohit will be a tad more aggressive in this contest. 

The Bulls will be coming into this match after thrashing the Thalaivas in the previous game. Vikash Kandola and Bharat have shared raiding responsibilities while Neeraj Narwal has been good as well. Mahender Singh has been good in the left cover but the right cover is an area of concern. Saurabh Nandal and Aman have performed well and a lot will depend upon how the covers go about their business since the U Mumba raiders are known to target the corners. Bharat will have to focus upon not spending a lot of time on the bench for the Bulls' success. 

Right then, we are in for a cracker of a contest as two high-on-confidence sides lock horns. Sit back, relax and enjoy as I, Maanas Upadhyay, take you through all that unfolds over the course of this contest!
