The hosts set the tone early in the first turn, displaying exceptional attacking prowess to accumulate 32 points. The Indian team's skydiving skills were particularly noteworthy, with players demonstrating remarkable agility throughout the match.
In the second turn, India showcased their defensive expertise, effectively containing Bhutan's attacks. Despite Bhutan's speed, they managed only 18 points across three batches, thanks to India's strategic play and clever opposition management.
The third turn saw India return to attack mode with renewed vigour. Nikhil emerged as a standout performer with his exceptional skydiving abilities, helping the team secure 36 points. The Indians demonstrated excellent coordination in their Khos, combining running touches and skydives effectively.
