They succumbed to two all outs in the 9th and 17th minute & the Titans never quite recovered. Eventually Patna led with a score line of 23-9 after the first 20 minutes.
At the start of the second half, both teams started sensibly. Telugu Titans' defense started working well but it didn't last long as the over powering defense and raiding skills of Patna came together and threw Telugu Titans out of the game. With 2 super tackles against the Telugu titans, the match swung swiftly back towards Patna. Jaideep continued the good work for Patna to finish with 6 tackle points. The star raiding duo of the Desai brothers didn't work well for the Titans, which consequently let the team down in an important battle.
