With this body he took post on the road where he expected the assault would be made.

The Deccanies lost on this occasion twenty officers of note killed, and thirty more who were taken prisoners. After this success Mukbool Khan proceeded to Kehrla." In the month of Jumad-ool-Awul of the same year, the kings of Malwa and the Deccan concluding a peace, it was agreed, according to some historians, that Kehrla should be retained by Malwa, and that it should be considered as the southern limit of that kingdom; while others have asserted, that Elichpoor was ceded to Malwa on condition of the King refraining from invading the Deccan in future.
