Puneri Paltan's Stellar Start

Playing for the first time since clinching three consecutive victories in their recent home leg, Puneri Paltan demonstrated their superiority right from the outset. Their raiding and defensive units worked seamlessly in tandem, propelling the Paltan to a commanding 6-1 lead within the initial four minutes. Although Patna Pirates exhibited promise with Sachin’s Super Tackle and Manjeet’s multi-point raid, their aspirations for a comeback were shattered by an extraordinary raid from Pankaj.

Executing a remarkable Super Raid, Pankaj navigated past five defenders, leading to an All-Out. Puneri Paltan surged to a 14-8 lead by the 10th minute. The Paltan raiders maintained momentum, concluding the first half with a comfortable 22-15 advantage.

Iranian all-rounder Mohammadreza Chiyaneh stole the spotlight, transitioning into a raider role and amassing 4 points in two raids, including a Super Raid. Displaying individual brilliance, Chiyaneh executed a double ankle hold on Sudhakar M, completing another All-Out, and widening the Paltan’s lead to a formidable 38-22.

 

In a comprehensive team effort, every member of Puneri Paltan’s starting 7 contributed to the scoresheet. Mohit Goyat secured 9 points, while Chiyaneh and captain Aslam Inamdar garnered 6 points each, securing a resounding victory over the three-time champions.
