FULL TIME
37-32 Unbeaten for nine games in a row now, Gujarat Fortunegiants! Gujarat preserves its unbeaten record at home with a thrilling victory against UP Yoddha who put up a good fight. The game could have gone either way towards the end there. It's the ninth loss of the season for UP Yoddha.
35-32 All out! Phew!We sympathize with all of you who have lost your nails over this game. It's been that kind of a game. Gujarat is back in the lead and with only a minute to go, that might be that.
29-31 But it's UP Yoddha that goes into the lead here with a Super Tackle on Sachin. Just two minutes to go.
28-27 There could be another twist in the tale here. UP Yoddha is down to two men and an all out looks imminent.
24-23 Sachin puts Gujarat Fortunegiants in the lead again but it's slender. Now it gets interesting!
21-23 There it is! There's the turnaround in the game. Srikanth Jadhav gets a Super Raid , wiping out the entire team. Five points for the raid and two for the all-out and suddenly, look who's in the lead!
21-17 All UP Yoddha needs is one all-out and this game could take on a completely different hue. And it looks like it could happen soon. Gujarat is down to three men and UP Yoddha is inching forward.
19-13 Jeeva Kumar gets another referral right. UP Yoddha has been spotless in one aspect.
19-11 Does UP Yoddha have the quaity and the character to pull this back? There's no dearth of quality, but Yoddha has been consistently underperforming this season.

17-6 Another poor raid from Jadhav. UP Yoddha is making it easy here for the home team.

7-3 With a good spell of play by Gujarat's defense, the game has turned on its head. Yoddha's numbers go down rapidly.

The home team Gujarat Fortunegiants comes on the back of an eight-game unbeaten streak, while UP Yoddha has been struggling this seaso. It has lost eight games so far.
