Chandigarh Comets fought back from a goal down to notch up a dominating 3-1 victory over hosts Pune Strykers in their seventh match.
Chandigarh, who had three wins and as many losses so far, scored through Sukwinder Singh (12th minute), Gurjinder Singh (41st) and Llyod Stephensonn (51st) after Pune’s Mario Nicolas Almada had put them ahead in the 11th minute.
Pune had plenty of home support and their first goal in the opening quarter when Mario scored through a field goal only raised the expectations. However, Chandigarh hit back quickly, Sukwinder Singh netting the equaliser in the next minute.
Six minutes into the third quarter, Gurjinder converted a penalty corner to help the visitors lead 2-1. Ten minutes later, Stephensonn scored another field goal to seal the match.
