Scores:
Patna Pirates 43-23 U Mumba
Telugu Titans 22-40 Gujarat Giants
Just the second win of the season for Gujarat Giants and this could not have been any easier for them. 13 points from their out of form defence and Manpreet Singh will surely be a happy man tonight.
The Giants skipper Sunil seems to have picked up an injury in his right ankle. He has walked off gingerly. Not a good sign for the Giants, especially with Ravinder Pahal injured too.
Second all out on the Titans and this match is now surely out of their reach. 18-point difference now and I do not think Titans can get even a single point from this contest.
Titans have been reduced to three men as the Giants' captain Sunil opens his account with a block on Rajnish.
Giants down to three men again and this time Ankit Beniwal gets dashed by Parvesh Bhainswal. Too easy for the Giants at the moment. 11 point lead with less than five minutes left.
Titans 20-31 Giants
Rathan comes in as a substitute, pockets a bonus and then tackles Rajnish. Super SUBBBB!
A 10-point lead for the Giants with 10 minutes left on the clock.
Rajnish completes his second Super 10 of the season and he has reduced the Giants down to two men.
Gujarat Giants continue their merry ways. The Titans defence keep on gifting them points while the Giants are keeping it tight.
Titans 14-23 Giants
Gujarat Giants' half. Rakesh HS' half. 20 points scored by the Giants - 12 of which have come via Rakesh. The Titans, on the other hand, have been heavily dependent on Rajnish who has scored 9 out of their 13 points in the half.
