FULL TIME! U.P. Yoddhas 23-30 U Mumba

U.P. Yoddhas will have plenty to ponder upon about their team combinations ahead of their next encounter. They will need to address the elephant in the room - whether or not to include 'Record-Breaker' Pardeep Narwal, who is looking rusty and lethargic in his movements. Surender Gill having to shoulder all raiding responsibilities and should he have a poor run, like he did today, U.P. have no one else to rely upon. As for U Mumba, they have turned up a completely different side in this encounter! They have played a fearless brand of kabaddi and have brought back memories of the yesteryears, where U Mumba's defense dictated terms. All players contributing throughly for U Mumba and the star of the night will perhaps be Jai Bhagwan's all-round contributions and skipper Surinder Singh's fearless approach. A comprehensive performance and U Mumba get underway in the points table with five points against their name. It has been a superb showing and they will hope to continue the same in their upcoming games as well!
40' Do-or-die raid for U Mumba and Jai Bhagwan perishes. As soon as he attempts a bonus point, Surender Gill puts in an ankle hold and the rest of the defense is quick to arrive for assistance. 
39' A good diving ankle hold from Kiran Magar but he did not have any assistance from the others. Surender Gill drags himself to the mid-line.

U.P. Yoddhas 22-30 U Mumba

39' Durgesh Kumar picks up a couple of points as he gets in a running hand touch on Ankush and another on Surinder Singh, who had come around for an advance dash. 
37' Do-or-die raid for U Mumba and Jai Bhagwan comes in for it! He is into the last ten seconds when the centre defender, Ashu, comes in for the tackle. Another defender who had come for assistance has to make his way back as Jai Bhagwan turns and crosses the mid-line with his foot!

U.P. Yoddhas 19-30 U Mumba
36' Surinder Singh attempts an advance dash on Rathan K, who crosses the mid-line while airborne. 
TIMEOUT!
36' It is Pardeep Narwal this time who has to make his way back to the bench as Harendra Kumar runs around in a chain and the defense completes the tackle just inches within in the mid-line. U Mumba having a comfortable lead now!

U.P. Yoddhas 18-28 U Mumba
35' Surender Gill is tackled once again as Kiran Magar puts in a terrific ankle hold and Surinder Singh needs no second invitation to pounce upon the raider. 
34' Guman Singh attempts a bonus point twice, once under Pardeep Narwal and once under the right corner. He is awarded the bonus by the umpires too!

U.P. Yoddhas 18-25 U Mumba
32' Guman Singh attempts a bonus and as soon as he does that, Shubham Kumar runs around for a dash. Guman shifts his momentum towards the mid-line and makes his way to his half comfortably. 
TIMEOUT!
31' ALL OUT! First all out of the night! The defense hangs back and allows Pardeep to go for the bonus point. As soon as goes for the bonus, Harendra Kumar runs around with a block and it is a matter of seconds before the rest of the defense piles onto him!
U.P. Yoddhas 17-23 U Mumba
30' The right corner chain runs around as Ashish ventures deep into the left side of the defense. He uses the lobby terrifically and crosses the mid-line with his outstretched hand. Yoddhas down to one man now. 
29' Surinder Singh dives and puts in a double ankle hold to send back Durgesh. Both sides playing on their defense.

28' SUPER TACKLE! Sumit lunges at Jai Bhagwan's ankles and wraps himself around his ankles! The defense runs around for assistance straightaway!
27' Do-or-die raid for the Yoddhas and Pardeep Narwal comes in for it. Attempts a bonus point in front of the left-in defender and it has been granted.

A bonus as clear as day and U Mumba have absolutely squandered a review there. Review unsuccessful! 
Timeout - U Mumba. They're using up their team timeout already! 
25' Do-or-die raid for U Mumba and Jai Bhagwan has been sent in for it! Ventures deep but turns and thrusts himself towards the mid-line as Nitesh Kumar comes in for a half-hearted dash.

22' Rathan K is brought down as Surinder Singh comes around for a rock-solid block to pin down the raider. 
And right on cue, Rathan K has been substituted in for Shubham Kumar. Can he make an impact?
HALF TIME! U.P. Yoddhas 9-14 U Mumba

Well, a completely different U Mumba has turned up tonight! They have been absolutely ruthless in the defense and the Yoddhas' famed raiding duo managing just four raid points is proof of that. The skipper is leading from the front while Rinku and Kiran Magar have been in terrific form. The raiding department is lagging but the defense is making up for it. U Mumba raiders seemed to be focused more on picking up the bonus points and that strategy seems to be paying off in a low-scoring encounter. Jai Bhagwan's all-round contributions earning him a spot in the seven and he has made an impact in both departments straightaway! As for the Yoddhas, their defense is firing but they will have to find a way to get raid points. Pardeep Narwal is looking quite lethargic in the middle, allowing the U Mumba defenders to pounce upon him quite comfortably. Perhaps a change of raiders will do the trick. The Yoddhas should consider substituting Rathan K or Nitin Tomar in for the second half. U Mumba favourites to win this contest from here on. Who will emerge on top? Stick around to find out!
20' Kiran Magar puts in a terrific ankle hold on Durgesh Kumar and the covers are onto the raider in a flash! 
19' Do-or-die raid for U Mumba and Nitesh's ankle hold is one that Jai Bhagwan cannot escape from. However, Nitesh had stepped out of bounds just before the tackle was initiated and Jai Bhagwan has been deemed to be safe!

However, Yoddhas believe that Nitesh's foot went out of bounds after the touch was initiated. Yoddhas review! 
A poor review as Nitesh had indeed stepped out of bounds before any touch was initiated. Review unsuccessful! 

U Mumba 13-9 U.P. Yoddhas
19' Rinku's ankle hold is a solid one and the left corner chain is around in a moment to pounce upon him. 
18' Jai Bhagwan puts in a double ankle hold on the incoming Surender Gill and the rest of the defense is quick to rise to support. 
17' Sumit puts in a terrific ankle hold and Ashish fails to escape. The Yoddhas clawing their way back into the contest.

U Mumba 10-9 U.P. Yoddhas
16' Surender Gill entices Kiran Magar into going for the ankle hold. Writhes his foot free and makes his way to the mid-line. 
16' Guman Singh is tackled as Ashu Singh executes a double thigh hold and the rest of the defense piles onto him. 
15' Pardeep Narwal runs straight into the surprise double thigh hold of Ashish and is completely immobilised. 
14' A little confusion in the middle as the defenders are haywire and lose the chains. Surender Gill goes for hand touch on Surinder Singh in the left corner and Rinku from the right corner runs around and dashes him out of bounds!

U Mumba 9-6 U.P. Yoddhas
13' Guman Singh uses his height to pick up a bonus point in front of the right-in defender. 
12' Harendra Kumar tries a double thigh-hold on Pardeep Narwal, who changes directions instantly and makes his way to the mid-line. 
11' Guman feigns a bonus point and Shubham Kumar is caught in two minds about the dash. Just hangs about in the end and Guman gets in a comfortable hand touch. 
11' As soon as Jai Bhagwan tries a bonus point, Durgesh Kumar puts in an ankle hold and the left corner puts in a back hold to pin down the raider.

U Mumba 6-5 U.P. Yoddhas
10' Surender Gill sends back Kiran Magar with a reverse toe-touch! 
9' Do-or-die raid for the Yoddhas and Pardeep Narwal comes in for it. An audacious back-hold from Rinku completely immobilises the Record-Breaker!
8' Guman Singh ventures deep in the left side of the defense. As soon as he does that, Nitesh Kumar runs around from the right corner and dashes him out. Guman was pretty confident of having crossed the mid-line from inside the lobby but the umpires believe otherwise. U Mumba decide against the review too. 
7' Guman Singh extends his arm and gets in a running hand touch on cover defender Shubham Kumar.

U Mumba 5-2 U.P. Yoddhas
6' Do-or-die raid for the Yoddhas and Surender Gill shoulders responsibility. Surinder Singh runs around as Gill ventures deep and Gill is sent spiralling out of bounds!

Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of Match 10 of the Pro Kabaddi League, 2022 between Season 2 champions U Mumba and a formidable U.P. Yoddhas at the Shree Kanteerava Stadium, Bengaluru. 

U Mumba did not get off to the best of starts in the tournament, facing a massive 14-point drubbing at the hands of Dabang Delhi K.C. in the curtain-raiser. It was quite a poor outing for largely the entire side, with both departments not clicking how they would have liked them to. The raiding unit, which was to be led by Guman Singh, painted a weak picture as Ashish top-scored with 7 points while Guman and Shivam simply failed to get points. 

The defense was nothing to write home about as well, with the side not looking like a well-oiled unit by any means. The left corner was a cause of concern before Kiran Magar was substituted in. Expect Magar to start in today's game as well. Jai Bhagwan is an all-rounder that U Mumba will certainly like to try out in the starting seven after an impressive debut in the dying minutes of the last game. However, they will need Guman & Co. to step up and get points in the raiding department if they are to win this encounter. 

U.P. Yoddhas, on the other hand, got off the mark in the tournament with a win in their opening encounter. Pardeep Narwal had a decent outing in the limited number of raids that he was sent in for while Surender Gill shouldered the responsibility of doing the bulk of the scoring. The covers and the corners look pretty solid as well and the Yoddhas will certainly like to get a winning streak going with a dominant win here over an inexperienced U Mumba side. 

We are in for an enthralling encounter and it promises to be an edge-of-the-seat thriller! Sit back, relax and enjoy as I, Maanas Upadhyay, take you through all that unfolds over the course of this contest!
