The talisman for the Jaipur Pink Panthers – Arjun Deshwal – took a substantial lead when he inflicted the first ALL OUT of the match on the defending champions.

They carried this momentum through to the very end of the first half of this PKL 11 contest, with the score reading 19-11.
The ‘Raid Machine’ Arjun Deshwal produced a moment of magic at the start of the second half to inflict a second ALL OUT on the Puneri Paltan and complete his Super 10 in the same move. After Abinesh Nadarajan fell out of the end line, Deshwal pressured Gaurav Khatri and Ajith Kumar as he went on to win five points in a single raid in PKL 11.
Another mistake from Abinesh Nadarajan in a Do-Or-Die Raid gifted another point to the Jaipur Pink Panthers despite a successful tackle. At this point in PKL 11, the match was well in favour of the two-time champions, with the Puneri Paltan needing a massive effort to come back from a 16-point deficit with 10 minutes left in the game.
Mohit Goyat was the main aggressor for Puneri Paltan, but he did not receive the support he would have expected from his teammates. Pankaj Mohite also showed glimpses of his ability, but a lack of effort from the defenders worked against the defending champions. Eventually, the Jaipur Pink Panthers went on to secure an impressive victory with a difference of 14 points in this exciting PKL 11 matchup.
