Pro Kabaddi 2017, Pkl season 5, Gujarat Fortunegiants, U Mumba, Telugu Titans, Kabaddi news, Indian Express Gujarat Fortunegiants are now unbeaten in three consecutive home matches. 

Gujarat Fortunegiants were nine points behind at one point. It looked like there was no way back for them. But they then shored up their defence and sharpened their attack. This is Gujarat’s third consecutive win at home. This will be a difficult pill for Bengaluru Bulls to swallow. They were cruising at one stage and still fell short by three points in the end.

Sandeep Narwal was the star of the show for Puneri Paltan. He inflicted an all out on the Warriors in the first half and that led to Pune gaining multiple consecutive points. Soon their first half lead swelled to nine points and Bengal Warriors could not come back from that. It is the second consecutive defeat for the Warriors. Their defence, which had looked so strong in the first two matches, leaked points in this match and that looked like the chief reason for their defeat.
