As a Bengal supporter, this was disappointing to watch. Our defence looked shaky throughout the match. Need to bounce back strong in the next game if we want to make the playoffs.

The strategic timeout really worked in Panthers' favor. They came back stronger every time. Nitin Kumar deserved the MVP today - his raids were clinical!

While Nitin Kumar was brilliant, I feel the match could have been closer if Bengal Warriorz had capitalized on their Super Tackle opportunities. Their raiders need to step up.

That All Out in the second half completely broke Bengal's momentum. Panthers showed why they're one of the most consistent teams in PKL history. Great display of kabaddi skills!
