Dabang Delhi v/s Bengaluru Bulls
Both the Dabangs and Bulls dominated the first half of PKL 2021, before losing their steam a bit. But, here they are facing off in the second semifinal with a spot at the final at the stake.
It is going to be a battle of superstars, it is going to be Naveen Goyat verus Pawan Sehrawat.

Patna Pirates WINSSSS!
Behold the first finalists of PKL 2021 - the 3-time champions Patna Pirates. They were questioned after releasing their star Pardeep Narwal, they were question after they brought in Monu Goyat, they were questioned after they named Prashant Kumar Rai their captain, but Ram Meher Singh has once again guided them to a PKL final.
Heartbreak for the Yoddhas, who continue to crumble in playoffs.

ALL OUT, PATNA PIRATES!
The UP Yoddhas have finally awakened. They have inflicted an all-out and have managed to reduce the deficit to seven points.
But, is it too little too late? The Pirates would certainly hope so.

5 minutes left!
5 minutes left in the match and we more or less have the first finalist of PKL 2021 in front of us. The Pirates have a 12-point lead and this should be easy to wrap up now.
But, they are down to 3 men so a twist is not completely out of the equation.

HIGH 5, MOHAMMADREZA!
A record 10th High 5 of the season for Mohammadreza Chiyaneh. WHAT A STARRRRR!

10 minutes left!
The Patna Pirates are well in control of this contest, but they do need to cut out on those unnecessary tackles. They have been rather lucky tonight that the Yoddha raiders' have failed to escape past them with multiple points.
Fortune favours the brave, they say, and this is exactly what is at display at the Sheraton Grand tonight.
Pirates 31-17 Yoddha

ALL OUT, UP YODDHA!
This is just going from bad to worse for the Yoddhas. Third all-out in a row and they have just 12 minutes to turn this around.

Ram Meher Singh is unable to control himself!
Another do-or-die raid for UP Yoddha and the Pirates defence once again attempts an advance tackle. Sunil this time with a diving ankle hold, the rest of the defence comes in to make it successful but that was rather risky.
Srikanth Jadhav almost got past the mid-line, in fact he touched it but failed to cross it. Ram Meher Singh is letting his emotions know. He is not happy with the risks taken by Pirates defence.
