Vikrant and G Jeeva Gopal, both from Warangal Warriors took the best raider and defender awards for their exploits. Meanwhile, buoyed by the spectator support, who cheered for the host, Hyderabad Bulls cashed in on post-break blunders of the flamboyant Nalgonda Eagles, who seemed lost after actually leasing 18-12 at half-time.
