Pro Kabaddi League 2017 Season 5: 5 talking points from Day 10 of PKL 5

#5 Nerves get the better of Chaudhari in the dying moments

Rohit failed to make much of an impact and was on the bench in the crucial dying moments of the game

After dramatically leveling scores in the dying moments of the game, Telugu Titans had a brilliant opportunity to score their second win of the tournament when Rahul Chaudhari went in to take the final raid of the match with just two Bengaluru Bulls defenders left on the mat and his team trailing by just one. On another occasion, a seasoned Chaudhari would have hardly broken a sweat in collecting two points and an all out. But, on Tuesday, nerves got the better of the mercurial raider.

With the Titans trailing by a solitary point, Chaudhari took out Preetam Chhillar and with an eternity left to score another point, retreated back to his side. Even Ashish Sangwan, the lone Bulls defender left on the mat, was left wondering what saved him on the night. It was only after going back to his den did Chaudhari realize that his raid had only managed to level the score and he had squandered a golden opportunity to score two points to win the game for his team. Chaudhari still finished the game with 8 raid points.
