Bengaluru Bulls will now play Dabang Delhi K.C. in the second semi-final on Wednesday.The match had a cagey start with both teams sizing each other up. The defences made uncanny errors while raiders took a very cautious approach.But Bengaluru slowly started dominating with their secondary raider Chandran Ranjit also chipping in with valuable points. That double-headed attack along with Pawan gave Bulls their first ALL OUT in the 14th minute to open a 9-point lead.Gujarat didn't let the ALL OUT affect them badly and immediately initiated a fightback. Rakesh S and Pardeep Kumar started dominating the raids and reduced Bengaluru to just 2 men on the court in the final minute of the first half.But Mahender clinched a Super Tackle right before the interval to end the half with the scores 24-17. Gujarat had just 1 tackle point in the first half.The Bulls prevented an early ALL OUT with another Super Tackle by Mahender in the first minute of the second half. He picked his High 5 in the process and Bharat then backed it up with a 4-point Super Raid.The numerical advantage helped the Bulls inflict another ALL OUT in the 6th minute after the restart to make the scores 35-21. Pawan secured his Super 10 as the Bulls opened a 15-point advantage with 10 minutes remaining in the eliminator round.The Bulls continued to dominate with their defence thwarting the Giants with ease. They had 14 tackle points compared to Gujarat's 5 with 5 minutes remaining.Bengaluru was also buoyed by the fact that both Bharat and Chandran Ranjit were having a good game. This ensured Pawan spent very little time in the dugout.The Season 6 champions inflicted another ALL OUT with 3 minutes remaining to make the scores 48-28. The Bulls' defenders kept calm in the final minutes to clinch an important playoff win.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
