We put on a commanding display tonight as we secured a memorable victory over the Bengal Warriorz, finishing the match 47 - 40 at full time. From the very first raid, there was a sense of determination and belief across the team showing grit, focus and unity to get the job done. We even set a new benchmark this season by scoring the most points by any team in the first half, racking up 31 points before the break.

Captain Rakesh was simply outstanding, leading the charge with a sensational 18 raid points. He truly rose to the occasion, breaking through their defence time and again with sharp movement and composure under pressure.

In defence, Shadloui was back to his absolute best. His 5 successful tackles and a well-earned High-Five showcased his dominance, and him inflicting an all-out on them proved to be a big turning point.

Ankit, though primarily a raider, also stepped up brilliantly in defence. His 4 tackle points demonstrated his all-round skill and commitment, and he nearly grabbed a High-Five of his own.

Viswanth’s contribution at crucial moments was vital too. Being part of two super tackles swung the momentum our way when the match was in the balance, helping us open up an important lead and keep control.

Tonight was more than just a win, it was an example of our mental strength and togetherness. We are incredibly proud of how we performed as a team. This was a victory built on hard work, belief and the unbreakable spirit of the Gujarat Giants.

Let’s keep this going!
