Pro Kabaddi League: Amirmohammad Zafardanesh put in a fine performance for the U Mumba side, who defeated the Gujarat Giants, to pick up their first points of the season in the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL). U Mumba won the contest with a scoreline of 33-27. Guman Singh, who scored 3 points on the day for the Gujarat Giants, was co-incidentally with the U Mumba side last year.

U Mumba picked up the first points of the game courtesy of Manjeet and Amirmohammad Zafardanesh, but from the very beginning, the Gujarat Giants were fighting hard to their opposition in check. After the first few minutes though, the U Mumba lead was wiped out, as Parteek Dahiya, Guman Singh and Jitender Yadav turned it around for the Gujarat Giants.

From the get-go, the contest was a close one, with neither side willing to concede an inch to the other. For U Mumba, it was Manjeet who was leading the charge, and at the halfway stage of the first half, they led the contest with a three-point lead. Himanshu then landed a Super Tackle for the Gujarat Giants to bring the contest back to level terms. At the end of the first half, U Mumba led 14-13.
