A strategic approach from both teams defined the first half of the match as the UP Yoddhas and the Tamil Thalaivas’ raiders took the game to the Do-Or-Die raid.

An equally fought first-half finished at 13-13.
It was in the second half that the Yoddhas upped the ante. Two minutes into the second half, they inflicted the ALL OUT on the Thalaivas.
