Sidharth Khanna, the Ninjas striker played in
a withdrawn role hanging back deep in his own
half and only came into the game as an attacking
presence in the fourth quarter. It was too late
by then and Aditya Bahri, the Tigers keeper kept
his second consecutive clean sheet.
The Mighty Atoms went on a scoring spree against
the Super Cubs as Aditya Kapur hit his fourth
hat trick in the league. Kapur's first goal was
a superb right foot volley from the edge of the
box and his second a scorching right footer from
near the half line. Pratap Atwal scored two more
to continue his impressive scoring run and Aman
Banerji hit his first goal of the league with
a volley to give the Atoms a six nil victory.
Having lost 7-4 to the Hurricanes in their previous
encounter, the Lightning Strikers were ready to
put up a fight this time. But Nikhil Ledlie had
other ideas. The "Lightning Striker"
was clinical with his finishing, scoring all seven
in a 7-2 victory and destroying the Strikers after
they had put up some early resistance with goals
from Palash Joshi and Ashwin Hoon.
The Red Hot Suns shook off two consecutive defeats
with a 3-1 victory over the Happy Hawks. The goals
came from Gautam Anand (2) and Anand Madhok while
Suhail Thomas gave the Hawks their only goal.
