History: Major Defeats of Tipu Sultan in Hands of Maratha Empire

If you use Twitter, you can choose to follow a very good account called Indian History Pictures whose handle is: https://twitter.com/IndiaHistorypic

Recently, it posted two tweets which show the timeline of major defeats of Tipu Sultan, majorly in the hands of the great Marathas:


While most of us consider Tipu Sultan as a brave warrior, to consider him invincible and a greater force than other Indian kingdoms of the time is not true. Maratha warriors at that time ruled over most parts of India and defeated Tipu many times; as indicated in above image.
