We delivered a statement performance in our fourteenth match of PKL Season 12, overpowering Patna Pirates 40-32 in a thrilling contest at full time. Leading from the very first whistle, the Giants exuded confidence, control, and sheer determination to secure this much-needed victory.
Himanshu Singh was the undisputed star of the night, showcasing his dazzling agility and smart game reading to notch up 11 raid points. His raids not only broke Patna’s defensive setup but also kept the scoreboard ticking in our favour throughout. Backing him magnificently in defence was Mohammad Shadloui, who once again proved why he’s one of the most feared corners in the league. His rock-solid presence and clinical tackles earned him a superb 5 points, effectively shutting down Patna’s raiding threats at crucial moments.
The Giants maintained dominance from start to finish, never letting the Pirates gain momentum. Whether it was aggressive tackles, swift raids, or high-pressure situations, our players executed their roles to perfection.
The upcoming fixtures promise more high-octane battles, and tonight’s victory is the perfect launchpad. We couldn’t be prouder of the boys in red, a team effort that shows what Gujarat Giants are all about.
Onward we march to our next clash against the Tamil Thalaivas, tomorrow 9:30pm.
