Goa Challengers proved themselves to be the better side in the summit clash, to lift their first title here at Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex.
After Alvaro Robles’ clean sweep against A. Sharath Kamal had put the Goa outfit on the cusp of victory at 7-5 in front of 2200-plus fans, T. Reeth Rishya — the Challengers’ designated finisher for the season — had to win a solitary game against Sutirtha Mukherjee.
