Match 1: Patna Pirates vs Bengaluru Bulls
In a much-needed turnaround, Bengaluru Bulls secured their first win of PKL 2025, defeating Patna Pirates 38-30 in a thrilling encounter on September 6. It was a tale of two halves, as the Bulls clawed their way back after trailing early, thanks to standout performances by Alireza Mirzaian (10 points) and Aashish (8 points).
The match began with both teams trading early blows, level at 4-4 in the opening minutes. Patna, led by Ayan, surged ahead to 12-6 midway through the first half, with Ayan contributing 5 of those points. However, the Bulls refused to back down. A late all-out helped Bengaluru overturn the deficit and head into half-time with a 19-15 lead.
In the second half, despite a brief Patna resurgence that cut the deficit to just two points, Bengaluru’s raiders kept their composure. With Alireza leading the charge and timely contributions from Deepak and others, the Bulls pulled away in the final minutes.
The victory not only gave Bengaluru their first points of the season but also showcased their depth and resilience, while Patna Pirates continue their search for form after yet another disappointing outing.
