In the opening game of the day, Hockey Bengal emerged victorious 1-0 over Hockey Mizoram in a tightly contested battle.

Despite Maharashtra's increased attacking efforts, it was Sunita Kumari (51’) who managed to equalize the score with a well-placed shot near the goalpost. Yet, Maharashtra's joy was short-lived as Karuna Minz (55’) capitalized on a penalty corner in the dying moments, securing Odisha's triumph with a 2-1 win.
