Pro Kabaddi League: Patna Pirates beat Telugu Titans in a thriller match

On a day when Siddharth Desai reached 600 attacking points in the league, his 15 points were the Titans' highlight.

The game started with a tackle by Mohammadreza Shadloui Chiyaneh on Siddharth Desai on the very first play of the night. The clash between the two men was the highlight of the day, and in the early stages, it looked like Chiyaneh had Desai in hand. But soon enough, it proved not to be the case.

Desai caught Chiyaneh off guard several times as the match progressed, ensuring that his team took an early lead. Contrary to pre-game expectations, the Titans scored the first ALL OUT of the evening to take an 11-7 lead.

But the Pirates fought back, and a combination of Sachin's attacks and tenacious defence helped them turn the tables, and soon they were able to turn the tables with an ALL OUT to take a 16-14 lead. By now, the tide had turned, and the Pirates went into the break with a 22:17 lead.

At the start of the second half, the Pirates refused to let the game slip away, but the Titans refused to be defeated. The battle between Desai and Chiyaneh continued unabated, with the attacker winning most of the duels. 

Despite a series of solid defensive actions by the Titans, the Pirates took a 10-point lead with a second ALL OUT.

Cheered on by the home fans, the Titans pulled themselves together and got the points back to avoid going home empty-handed. Desai's strong play continued, and he scored his 15th of the season with a few minutes left.

In last night's attack, the Titans added a second ALL OUT, but in the end, it was too little, and they lost by one point.
