Haryana Steelers were taking on the mighty Patna Pirates who were the pre-match favourites playing at their home. The match was touted as a clash between ex-teammates Pardeep Narwal and Monu Goyat.

As the lineup was announced it was a surprise for all as Monu Goyat was not only missing from the starting 7, but also from the substitutes. The odds of Haryana winning the encounter were further lowered.

But the turn of events that followed was straight out of a Hindi-movie, where a young, inexperienced team led by a new captain, Vikas Kandola rose to the occasion with exemplary performance in all departments.

Vikas did not let the captaincy bog him down and took his game up a level with the added responsibility to score a Super-10. He scored 8 touch and 2 bonus points from his 20 attempted raids and was his team's top raider for the match.
