		A terrific first-half performance by UP Yoddha help them to beat Tamil Thalaivas 37-32 in Vivo Pro Kabaddi (PKL 2018) Season six at Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai. Prashant Kumar Rai (8 points) led the Yoddha&rsquo;s scoring chart while Narender did the damage with his tackles. Tamil Thalaivas&rsquo; defence let them down in the first half. Ajay Thakur scored 12 points for Tamil Thalaivas but it just wasn&rsquo;t enough as it didn&#39;t help Tamil Thalaivas to make a late comeback.

In the 9th minute UP Yoddha inflicted the first all out to lead 10-0. UP Yoddha defence did a fine job on Tamil Thalaivas raiders and didn&rsquo;t allow Ajay Thakur and Jasvir Singh to score any points.&nbsp;<br />

		On the other hand in the second match, Puneri Paltan produced a solid all-round team performance to beat Haryana Steelers 34-22 to register their first win of Vivo Pro Kabaddi Season six. Nitin Tomar led from the front as he scored seven points and was ably supported by G B More and Deepak Kumar Dahiya who scored six and five points respectively. For Haryana Steelers, it was a disappointing night for the raiders as apart from Vikas Kandola (8 points) no one else contributed much.</div>

Puneri Paltan defence scored their first point of the match in the 7th minute as they trailed 3-4. Both teams traded raid and tackle points in the next few minutes as Haryana Steelers held a slender 7-6 lead after 13 minutes. More did the bulk of scoring for Pune as he had four points in the first 15 minutes. Surender Nada earned two tackle points for Haryana&#39;s defence. It was a low-scoring affair in the first half as both teams played on the do-or-die raids.</div>
