PKL 12 Most Raid & Tackle Points after Qualifier 1, Puneri Paltan vs Dabang Delhi

Ayan Lohchab and Jaideep Dahiya lead the green and orange band lists after Qualifier 1 of PKL 12.
The Playoffs of Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 (PKL 12) are currently underway at the Thyagaraj Stadium in Delhi. On Monday, two exciting matches took place, and one team was eliminated, leaving four teams remaining in the hunt for the trophy.
In Eliminator 2, the Patna Pirates knocked out the Bengaluru Bulls from Season 12. The Pirates dominated the match, and although the Bulls attempted a late comeback through a record-breaking 7-point raid by Shubham Bitake, the Pirates held their nerves and didn’t let the momentum slip.
With this win, they advanced to Eliminator 3, where they will face the Telugu Titans. In Qualifier 1, Dabang Delhi emerged victorious over the Puneri Paltan in a tie-breaker. There was nothing to separate the two teams after 40 minutes of play.
Saurabh Nandal’s tackle on Aslam Inamdar in the tie-breaker proved to be crucial, and with this win, Delhi have booked their place in the final. Despite the loss, Puneri Paltan will get another chance in Qualifier 2, where they will face the winner of Eliminator 3.
