The first half of the match was a combination of fierce raiding and tackling from both sides. The Desai brothers and defense of Telugu Titans started on a high and got an early two-point lead in the first five minutes of the game. It was not too late when the Bengal Warriors started integrating and equalized their scoreline with Titans in the 15th minute itself, the rock-solid entry of Mohammed Nabibaksh in the party added to the tally of Bengal. In the final moments of the first half, there came a raid from Suraj Desai in which he was tackled, but after the review from the Telugu side, the result was something else. Even before Suraj was tackled he stepped out of the lobby and the defenders did the mistake of tackling him, which eventually added 3 points to the tally of Telugu Titans.
