Prime Volleyball League: Ahmedabad Defenders stunned the unbeaten Mumbai Meteors in the Prime Volleyball League at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium, Hyderabad, on Saturday, winning the match 12-15, 15-7, 15-12, 21-20.

Nandhagopal was named the Player of the Match. With this win, Ahmedabad Defenders climbed to the second position in the table with 12 points in 6 games, while the Meteors slipped to the third position.

Nandha started strongly for Ahmedabad while Muthusamy Appavu set up attacks from the middle to utilise Abhinav's strengths. The Meteors targeted small gaps in Zone 2 as Mathias Loftesnes managed to get a super serve. Petter Ostvik blocked Angamuthu twice, but service pressure from Dhruvil Shah kept the game levelled. A risky super serve paid dividends for the Meteors and got them a set ahead.
