Bengaluru, 2nd May 2018: The first game of the day was an extremely competitive one between Indian Overseas Bank, Chennai and Madras Sappers from Bangalore. The game saw a lot of fireworks as both the teams displayed aggressive physical basketball. However, the internationally experienced squad of IOB took the game away from MEG’s reach in the second half. In a game between ONGC Dehradun and Sports Authority of Andhra Pradesh, all eyes were on Vishesh Bhriguvanshi as he made his comeback six months after suffering a knee injury. Bhriguvanshi entered the game in the third quarter and displayed some crisp passing but wasn’t able to score. The defending champions ONGC secured an easy victory over S.A.A.P.
