#5 Pardeep Narwal’s empty raid

Pardeep Narwal literally decided the fate of the match by settling for an empty raid in the last raid of the match.

This was perhaps the biggest and most baffling moment of the match for both the sides. With the scores tied at 29-29 and just a handful of seconds left on the clock, Patna had just enough time for just another raid – the buzzer raid. A successful raid here could win the game, but being brought down by the opposing defence would mean victory for Bengaluru.

With the stakes as high as that, Pradeep Narwal decided to settle for the draw as he paced once around the defence and returned to the centre line to end the match at a draw. Perhaps that was the fair result as well, as both the sides had played their hearts out.
