09 May 2024
 

Odisha rode on a goal each by Pratibha Ekka and Karuna Minz to beat Mizoram 2-0 in their seventh and last Pool-A match of the 1st National Womens Hockey League (Phase-1) 2024-25 at the Marang Gomke Jaipal Singh Astroturf Hockey Stadium in Ranchi today.

This was the fourth win for Odisha and they finished third in Pool-A with 15 points. Haryana (16 points) and host Jharkhand (15 points) secured the first and second positions respectively.
