Pro Kabaddi League Season 12 is already producing some unforgettable moments, and Match 20 was no exception. In a thrilling encounter at the Vishwanadh Sports Club in Vizag, Dabang Delhi K.C. pulled off a stunning 36–35 win against defending champions Jaipur Pink Panthers, extending their unbeaten run in the tournament.
Ashu Malik: The Captain Who Delivered
Delhi’s skipper Ashu Malik once again led from the front with a heroic performance, scoring 20 raid points and adding a crucial tackle point. His agility, presence of mind, and ability to absorb pressure in crunch moments made the difference, especially when the match seemed to be slipping away.
With this performance, Ashu has now climbed to second place on the list of top raiders this season, racking up 45 raid points from just three matches. He is proving to be a consistent match-winner, and a top contender for the Orange Band this season.
Jaipur’s Early Dominance
The Pink Panthers began the game with intent. Thanks to some sharp raiding from Nitin Kumar and solid defensive structure, Jaipur inflicted an early All Out and went into halftime with a 20–15 lead. Sahil Satpal also played a crucial role, chipping in with key points in both raids and defense.
At this stage, Jaipur looked in full control, and most punters would’ve backed them to close out the win — especially with Delhi under scoreboard pressure.
Second-Half Comeback and Final Twist
But the second half saw a resurgence from Dabang Delhi. They tightened their defense, with Saurabh Nandal notching up three tackle points, and reduced the deficit steadily. The pressure began to mount on Jaipur, and momentum slowly shifted in Delhi’s favour.
With just seconds left on the clock and Jaipur leading 35–34, a moment of panic from Nitin Kumar turned the game on its head. Attempting a quick raid, Nitin failed to cross the baulk line — a fundamental error that gifted Delhi a Super Tackle and two vital points. That single mistake sealed Jaipur’s fate and gave Delhi a dramatic 36–35 win.
Gambling Insight – High-Risk, High-Reward Kabaddi
Matches like this are a goldmine for kabaddi betting enthusiasts. Ashu Malik’s form is proving to be a safe bet for those backing raid-heavy performances. On the flip side, unexpected match-turning blunders — like Nitin’s — are a reminder that kabaddi, much like cricket, can swing in a single moment.
