Pro Kabaddi 2023: Fazel Attrachali steps up to push U Mumba on backfoot

It was Gujarat’s skipper who took matters in his own hands in the second half. Fazel Attrachali is known to up the ante in the second half and something similar was witnessed on Tuesday as well. The Iranian, singlehandedly, sent U Mumba’s raiders out of the mat with his brutal tackles. Additionally, young raider Sonu Jaglan was consistently taking points with successful raids.

On the other hand, it was a forgettable outing for U Mumbai skipper, Surinder Singh, who couldn’t earn a single point in the entire game. A Zafardanesh, though, kept the team in the game by scoring points consistently. It was Gujarat Titans that dominated the play in the final 10 minutes. However, Zafardanesh helped U Mumbai level the scores by inflicting an all-out.

The match went down to the wire and there was a possibility of the first drawn game this season but a super raid from Sonu Jaglan in the final minute meant Gujarat had the last laugh, winning the game by a narrow two-point margin.

For the Giants, Fazel Atrachali was the best defender, amassing five points, which also included one touch point. Sonu Jaglan was, unarguably, the hero of the game with 11 points to his name. On the other hand, Guman Singh and Zafarnadesh both finished with 10 points each for U Mumba.
