Willingdon were two up before Navi Mumbai fought back to make the scores level through Ravi Puri who beat Rakshak Malhotra and Leon Emmanual who defeated Sudesh Malik. Both matches went to five games, so intense was the tussle.

Sanjay Goel, however, clinched the tie for Willingdon by defeating Vasant Bhadra in four games in the decider.
