#3 12 points against U Mumba in Patna
On a rare day when the Patna Pirates failed to click as a team, Rohit Kumar’s monstrous late surge almost snatched the game from Season 2 winners U Mumba.
After Patna trailed the Anup Kumar-led team 9-23 at half-time, coach Sanjiv Kumar Baliyan summoned Rohit to the fore and the raider ensured that the Mumbai franchise had to work hard for the victory. With a thunderous show, Rohit single-handedly reduced the deficit of 14 points to just seven. During his magical spell he inflicted two super raids and an all-out on the Mumbai unit, which looked highly improbable at the break. Rohit eventually made it a six-point game and, in the process, picked up a staggering 12 points.
None of the other Pirates members managed to reach even four points on the scoreboard, which emphasizes further how impactful Rohit was in the match. He ultimately could not save his side from crashing to their first defeat (28-34) of the season after an impressive 10-match unbeaten streak, but there was no doubt that Rohit gave his all that night.
