The third chukker proved decisive as Jaipur took firm control of the match. Sustained pressure, quicker ball movement, and clinical conversions saw them stretch their advantage significantly, racing ahead to an 8-4 lead by the end of the chukker and leaving Aravali struggling to contain the momentum.
