**Bengaluru Bulls’ Big Victory and Road to Top Four in Pro Kabaddi 2025**

Bengaluru Bulls’ assistant coach Jeeva Kumar reflected on their emphatic 54-26 victory against Gujarat Giants in Pro Kabaddi 2025. It was a one-sided affair, with the Bulls showcasing a dominant performance.

Jeeva Kumar revealed that the team’s strategy was centered around an aggressive approach. “We had planned to win by more points. We knew we would slip down the rankings if we scored fewer points and lost the game. So, we aimed to get as many points as possible,” he explained during the post-match press conference.

Despite facing a few close defeats earlier in the season, Kumar emphasized that the team took those losses seriously. “Most of our defeats were close and came down to tie-breakers. There haven’t been significant ups and downs. The team remained solid. We treated the defeats as lessons, planned accordingly, and that’s why we qualified for the playoffs,” he added.

Following this crucial win, the Bengaluru Bulls sealed their spot in the top four, finishing third after the league stage with 22 points from 18 matches. Their next challenge will be against the Telugu Titans in the Mini-Qualifier during the playoffs.
