In a rare occurrence, two lop-sided matches took place on the same night of the Pro Kabaddi League 2022 season. Defending champions Bengal Warriors cruised to a victory over the in-form Tamil Thalaivas in the first match of the night.

Later in the night, the Nitin Tomar-led Puneri Paltan crushed Season 2 champions U Mumba in the first Maharashtrian derby of the season.

On that note, let's have a detailed look at tonight's results.
