Meraj Sheykh put in a fine show to guide Dabang Delhi to a convincing 48-35 win over Jaipur Pink Panthers in a Pro Kabaddi League match here Friday.<\/p>\n
It was a solid performance from Delhi as Meraj Sheykh (15 points), Naveen Kumar, (9 points) and Chandran Ranjit (9 points) combined to score 33 points. Jaipur Pink Panthers never recovered from a slow start and just couldn\u2019t handle the intensity of Delhi\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n
Deepak Hooda produced a terrific raiding performance and scored 20 points but his effort went in vain as he just didn\u2019t get enough support. Sheykh got Dabang Delhi to a flying start with super raid in the first minute. Deepak got a couple of raid points as Pink Panthers trailed 3-4 after three minutes. Naveen then made a two-point raid in the 4th minute to give Dabang Delhi a 6-4 lead.<\/p>\n
The hosts then switched gears with Sheykh producing another super raid in the 11th minute to help Delhi led 15-7 after inflicting an all out.<\/p>\n
Pink Panthers\u2019 defence had no answer to the raiding prowess of Sheykh and Chandran. They could score just one tackle point in the entire first half. Sheykh got a super 10 in the first half as Dabang Delhi enjoyed a 19-point gap and led 29-10 at the break. Delhi began the second half with a bang, inflicting another all out in the 23rd minute to lead 33-11.<\/p>\n
Ravinder Pahal and Joginder Narwal marshalled the Delhi defence brilliantly and didn\u2019t let any Jaipur raider settle throughout the match.<\/p>\n
Pink Panthers\u2019 captain Anup Kumar too had a quiet match by his standards.<\/p>\n
The visitors salvaged some pride in the second half, scoring 10 points in the first 10 minutes but still trailed 18-36.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
