The battle continued into its 2nd night of play. The British continued to attack the dug in Sikhs with artillery & musket fire. The Sikhs returned fire. Casualties mounted on both sides without decisive result.
Late in the afternoon, with artillery ammunition running low the Brits decided they couldn't risk an all-out attack & withdrew outside artillery range in good order. TheSikhs had no appetite for a counterattack, so the battle petered out in a draw.
