The only unbeaten side of the Wave WKL, Khalsa Warriors, which have been on a rampage, won their seventh match in eight games, with one tie also against their name.
The team has now have 15 points from eight matches while United Kings stay in eighth after seven matches alongside Lahore Lions (in six matches) and Yo Yo Tigers (in seven matches).
With most teams having faced each other at least once, Khalsa Warriors seemed to have got a better understanding of the opposition's strengths and weaknesses.
As a result, the early part of the match was tight with both teams tied 13-13 after the first quarter and it became 27-26 in favour of Khalsa Warriors at the midway stage.
As the match entered the second half, they stepped up a gear and affected some good raids and stops to grab an overall six-point lead to give them a decent base for an offensive in the last session.
