Devank Dalal Inspires Bhiwani Bulls to Emphatic 62-34 Win Over Gurugram Gurus

Bhiwani Bulls bounced back from their opening-day defeat in the most emphatic way possible, thrashing Gurugram Gurus 62-34 on January 27 at the Sports University of Haryana, Rai. It was an early statement of the raiding power that would come to define Bhiwani Bulls' entire Kabaddi Champions League Season 1 campaign.

Devank Dalal, still settling into his new franchise after becoming the most expensive signing in Kabaddi Champions League auction history, produced the kind of dominant raiding display that would soon become his trademark. Backed by a defensive unit built around Hitesh, who would go on to finish the season as the league's Top Defender, Bhiwani Bulls overwhelmed a Gurugram Gurus side still finding its feet in its debut season.

For Gurugram Gurus, under coach Jagpal Singh, the defeat extended a difficult opening stretch that would eventually see the team lose five matches in a row before a stunning late-season turnaround. The 28-point margin remains one of the widest of the entire league stage, a reminder of just how dominant Bhiwani Bulls could be once Devank Dalal found his rhythm.

This result set the tone for what became a season-long pattern for Bhiwani Bulls, responding to setbacks with statement wins, a trait that carried the team all the way to the Kabaddi Champions League final months later.
