Another mistake from Abinesh Nadarajan in a Do-Or-Die Raid gifted another point to the Jaipur Pink Panthers despite a successful tackle. At this point, the match was well in favour of the two-time champions, with the Puneri Paltan needing a massive effort to come back from a 16-point deficit with 10 minutes left in the game.

Mohit Goyat was the main aggressor for Puneri Paltan, but he did not receive the support he would have expected from his teammates. Pankaj Mohite also showed glimpses of his ability, but a lack of effort from the defenders worked against the defending champions. Eventually, the Jaipur Pink Panthers went on to secure an impressive victory with a difference of 14 points between the two teams.
