FULL-TIME! U Mumba 35 - 44 Gujarat Giants

The defense yet again in the last ten minutes has always been a problem for U Mumba as they commit silly errors. There were dashes and blocks which were unnecessary from the defenders that costed them the defeat with more than a seven point difference.

Guman Singh yet again stood out and was the only silver lining for U Mumba as he gets his SUPER 10. It was never enough for them as there was no support eitherways in the raiding or in the defense of U Mumba. They started off well but they fail to take the momentum throughout the one hour.

Parteek Dahiya gets another SUPER 10 under his name for Gujarat Giants with Sonu chipping in six raid points. The raiding was sorted as they kept ticking the scoreboard while the defense was slightly tested in the first half but they came back stronger than ever before.

Every defender got a minimum of two points under their names which is a good sign for Giants as they are not completely dependent on their skipper Fazel. With this, they would look to continue the same winning momentum while U Mumba are still in the search to break their streak of defeats and ties.

And with all this action coming to the end on Day 1 at the Patna leg, this is Deepa R signing off for the day. Good Night and see you again with more exciting kabaddi action real soon.

HALF-TIME!! U Mumba 17 - 20 Gujarat Giants

U Mumba clearly had fixed plans when they went on and tackled with spot on aggression in the first ten minutes and never gave away easy points for the raiders of Gujarat. But then, after the entry of Sonu into the mat the defense of U Mumba was really tested and ended up with one ALL-OUT as well. Guman has been the one player who has been consistent throught.

Gujarat Giants started off slow but are slowly cruising as both Parteek and Sonu have their momentum set to carry forward in the second half. Their defense was not tested and has pretty much been a smooth ride so far. 
Yet they do not have a huge lead and its merely just a three point one.

Can Guman take his team over the line or is it the Giants who are going to carry forward their lead?
Stay tuned to know it all.

Hey and welcome to the Sportskeeda's live coverage of Pro Kabaddi League 2023! We are all in for the first day at a brand new leg at Patna. After the first clash, we are gearing up in Patliputra for the second game of the day where U Mumba are taking on Gujarat Giants!

For U Mumba, the recent clashes have been very close encounters where they have either lost the game by the barest of margins or got the score levelled. After a successful home leg, they are yet to find the winning momentum to keep them in the race for the playoffs. Amir Mohammad Zafardanesh's injury can be a big concern as he was playing as the second lead raider.

Giants on the other hand, though they haven't been consistent with the wins, they are securing the fourth place in the points table. They have also had a campaign similar to U Mumba which was not very predictable. The raiding has been a point of concern for this team as they keep shuffling the players in that department.

With all these stats and info left behind, it all comes to who will dominate the mat today. Will it be the defense of Giants or the raiding powerhouse of U Mumba that is going to leave happy after an hour from now? 
Stay tuned as I Deepa R, take you through all that is going to unfold in this exciting clash on the opening day at Patna.
