**Noida, India:** Arjun Deshwal delivered a stellar performance, scoring an impressive 19 points, leading the Jaipur Pink Panthers to a convincing 39-32 victory over the Bengaluru Bulls in Match 49 of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) season 11 at the Noida Indoor Stadium on Tuesday.
The Bengaluru Bulls, missing their star raider Pardeep Narwal, got off to a strong start with Ajinkya Pawar’s early points. The Bulls inflicted an early All Out on the Pink Panthers within the first eight minutes of the match. However, Deshwal’s seven raid points kept Jaipur in the game.
The first half was a close affair, with both teams trading blows. Deshwal, who completed his fourth Super 10 of the season, helped the Pink Panthers narrow the gap and eventually take a narrow lead at the half-time mark, 19-17.
The second half saw the Pink Panthers turn up the heat. An early All Out inflicted on the Bengaluru Bulls shifted the momentum completely in Jaipur’s favor. Despite Ajinkya Pawar reaching a significant milestone of 500 raid points in the PKL, the Bulls couldn’t regain control. Deshwal, in a sensational individual performance, single-handedly powered the Pink Panthers to a comfortable victory.
Lucky Sharma also played a key role for Jaipur, completing a High 5 and finishing with six points. This win consolidates the Jaipur Pink Panthers’ position in the league standings, while the Bengaluru Bulls will be looking to regroup and bounce back in their upcoming matches.
