[1][2] Odisha finished second in the league stage, and beat the Gujarat Giants in Qualifier 1 to reach the final.
The Yoddhas finished third in the league stage, and beat the Chennai Quick Guns in the Eliminator and then the Gujarat Giants in Qualifier 2 to reach the final.
The Yoddhas scored 10 Dream Run points in their first defending turn as well, due in large part to a 8-point Dream Run (over 4 minutes of defense) by Adarsh Mohite, Rohan Shinghade & Arun Gunki, keeping the game relatively even at half-time.
With 14 seconds left, the Odisha attacker Suresh Lande was able to tag the Telugu defender Avdhut Patil with a Sky Dive, and thus scored 3 points to put Odisha permanently into the lead.
