The news of this battle greatly alarmed Rustam's governor of Rajapur, 'who took refuge in one of Afzal Khan's junks for escaping to the open sea. Before he could start, a Maratha force appeared on the bank to seize the junks; but the governor (about 10th January) succeeded in slipping away beyond the range of the Maratha guns, with the help of the English factor Henry Revington, who for his private gain opposed the Marathas, as will be described in Chapter 14.
