That's all for this match. Thanks for tuning into this coverage with me, Saikrishna MD. There's more PKL action coming your way over the course of this week. Until then, adios!
FULL TIME! UP Yoddhas 35 - 31 Gujarat Giants

With a loss in the reverse leg, the Yoddhas exacted their vengeance on the Gujarat Giants. Pardeep Narwal got good support from Rohit Tomar, who scored five points in the raid and also in defense, and it was a complete team effort that gave the UP Yoddhas the win this evening. Parteek Dahiya and Chandran Ranjit's efforts to pull back this contest from a 10-point deficit at the halfway mark went in vain. In the end, the Yoddhas played a decisive brand of Kabaddi, and that's why they take away five points from this match, and since the defeat margin is less than seven points, the Giants will get a point out of this.
39' Parteek Dahiya has been completely outplayed, and Gurdeep enforced that fiesty hold to end this match.
