Subodh from PNB became the Game Changer for snatching the victory from the jaws of IndusInd Bank. 30 runs were required in 18 balls, but Subodh kept his cool and took his team to the finishing line by scoring 28 runs in 17 balls.

In the Semi Final – 2, State Bank of India defeated Yes Bank by 55 Runs. SBI secured 127/8 (20) and Yas Bank had to satisfy with 72/10 in 17.5 overs.

Sonu became the Game Changer. In a low-scoring match and when Yes Bank could smell the victory after stopping SBI on a very modest score of just 127, Sonu started the spell which gave confidence to other bowlers and as a result, SBI bowlers took charge and spoiled Yes Bank's dream of reaching finals.
