Both teams got three points apiece from the match.
The match began and within seconds the thousands of fans who had flocked to the venue were sent into a tizzy when Rahul Choudhari tagged out Dharmaraj Cherlathan of the Bengaluru Bulls.
He seemed a player who enjoyed the fans love and it was evident from the outset, his movement was slick, his footwork lighter and quicker than it was when they last played Pune on the 12th.
May be, it was the four day rest break or perhaps it was the thunderous ovation he was given everytime he stepped into opposition territory. The first half was very tight, with largely only a single point separating the two outfits. This clearly wasn't a typical top of the table versus a bottom of the table clash, the Titans surrendered no quarter and overall looked more of a complete unit.
