Mumbai: Defending champions U Mumba became the second team after the Patna Pirates to make it to the semis of the Season 3 Star Sports Pro Kabaddi with a convincing 35-21 win over an injury hit Jaipur Pink Panthers. They had the match in the bag by the end of the first-half with a massive 21-5 lead. Jaipur Pink Panthers who were badly hit by injuries to key players lost Iranian Mohammad Maghsoudlou and Rohit Rana when everything was going in favour of U Mumba.<\/p>\n
Rishank Devadiga the all-rounder who is growing in stature led the initial assault with Rakesh Kumar and Anup Kumar too contributing their might. The first all-out was inflicted in the 7th Minute for a 9-1 lead. The lone point came from Rajesh Narwal. The second all-out further strengthened the winner’s position in the 14th minute. The score was 18-1 then and not even the die-hard supporters of the visitors would have given their side any chance. At 21-5 at half-time the situation looked bleak for them.<\/p>\n
But it must be said to their credit that the Jaipur Pink Panthers fought on gamely. Substitute Anil Patil came up with some good raids to end the match with 7 points. Rajesh Narwal the all-rounder contributed 5 points.<\/p>\n
For U Mumba it was a team performance with everybody contributing. Rishank Devadiga ended with a high ten with nine raid points. Rakesh contributed 5 points with all coming in the first half. Anup Kumar who was the crowd favourite led the team admirably as always plus his contribution of 5 points was significant.<\/p>\n
With this win the champions have 45 points in 11 matches and occupy the second place on the table. Jaipur Pink Panthers finished their engagements with 28 points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
