A brilliant performance from Pardeep Narwal and Maninder Singh but it is the Pirate who has come out on top tonight.
2⃣3⃣ raid points for Pardeep

1⃣7⃣ raid points for Maninder#BENvPAT must've been a nightmare for the defenders! 😱
A thrilling match comes to an end and it is the defending champions Patna Pirates who emerge triumphantly. Pardeep Narwal’s side had faced the Warriors thrice early this season but failed to notch a single victory. However, they have beaten the Warriors when it mattered the most.

The Final Whistle blows and it is the defending champions Patna Pirates who shrug off a late fightback from the Warriors to book a place in the final against Gujarat Fortunegiants on 28 October.
Patna Pirates win 47-44!
47-44! This will be a toss-up between the Warriors’ aggression and the Pirates’ strategy in the dying seconds of this second qualifier. Both teams will believe that the final spot is firmly in sight. Narwal prowls along the line and Surjeet takes the bait
46-43! WHAT A TURNAROUND!!! Bengal Warriors inflict a timely all-out on the Pirates. The Pirates will now play the waiting game and with just 25 seconds to go, it is anybody’s guess as to how close this game will actually go

42-28! Smart game by Pardeep as he continues to target Surjeet Singh to keep the star defender out of action for as long as possible. An extremely effective ploy by the 20-year-old captain of Patna Pirates
The Warriors need to act and act fast as the match is slowly slipping away. They cannot be content with just bonus points and their comeback heavily hinges on how the Warriors’ defence curb Pardeep NArwal’s rampage.
Under 5 minutes to go and Patna Pirates lead 40-27!
40-27! #PatnaPirates with the lead. One more all-out. Is this actually the end-game for #BengalWarriors

33-22! The Warriors seem to be targeting those bonus points. They would be important in the match only if the raiders are stopped in the tracks or the Warriors earn touch points. Narwal seems to be unstoppable yet again as he wins a point by sending Surjeet Singh off the mat
Time-out is taken with the Pirates leading 31-21! with less than 10 minutes on the clock. There seems to be a slight momentum shift towards the Warriors as they seem a bit more aggressive than the Pirates. Both teams are giving it their all to book a place in the finals against Gujarat Fortunegiants on Saturday
29-21! Eleven minutes left on the clock as Warriors are trying to reverse the fortines. Their defence seems to be much more in control after he break
One more dubki. One more Super 10 for #PardeepNarwal One more all-out for #BengalWarriors, #Pirates lead 28-17

22-15! The second half resumes and the Warriors are on the verge of yet another all-out. But Shrikant wins two points with a successful raid that sends two Pirates into the dug-out,
21-12! At half-time The Pirates are sailing away with a comfortable nine-point lead as the Warriors go back kto the drawing board to rethink their strategies as whatever they have been doing hasn’t worked so far.
20-10! With just three Warriors on the mat, Narwal comes in for a do-or-die raid and escapes the clutches of a diving Surjeet Singh to sprint back to his half with a point in his kitty.
The Warriors defence stop Monu on his do-or-die raid to win a point. They trail 7-14!

14-6! The Pirates’ coach must be extremely proud of his team’s defence so far as they have not put a foot wrong in the first half with the Warriors struggling to get a raid point
How good is Pardeep Narwal actually? In under 4 minutes, he goes for a raid and brings three Warriors on to his half. Narwal’s heroics with able supoprt from Monu and the dicey Pirates defence has been the story of the first half so far.
This man can't be stopped! He gets a super-raid, and inflicts an all-out.#PirateHamla #BENvPAT pic.twitter.com/6tjPy75q32

Sitting in the media box right next to the rest of the Warriors team would be an interesting experience. Direct reactions from the reserve players in the squad and full-throated cheers from the support staff. A tight contest on the cards.
Being from the same zone, both the teams have faced thrice already and the Pirates have failed to breach the Warrrior defence losing one match and settling for a tie in the other two.
The Patna Pirates enter the mat amidst cheers from a raucous Chennai crowd that is on its feet supporting the man-of-the-moment Pardeep Narwal
