By Our Sports Reporter
KOLKATA, MARCH 30. Punjab and Sind Bank (PSB) rode on Saranjit Singh's hat-trick to beat Indian Hockey Federation's (IHF) junior team 5-2 and record its first win in the Group A quarterfinal league stage of the 107th all-India Beighton Cup hockey here on Saturday. IHF juniors gave a spirited performance in the first session and held PSB 1-1 as Mustafa scored the equaliser in the 18th minute after Parminder Singh put the Bankmen ahead in the fourth minute. The IHF team went into the lead in the 40th minute getting Sandeep to score before Saranjit Singh mounted a late charge for PSB. The forward scored three goals in a span of just six minutes (49th, 52nd and 55th minutes) and turned the game totally in the Bankmen's favour. Baljit Singh Chandi found the net in the 68th minute to complete the tally for PSB. In a Group B league match, Punjab Police beat defending champion Central Industrial Security Force 1-0 to brighten its semifinal prospects. Having split points with Army XI on Friday, the Policemen successfully hung on to the lead earned by Kanwalpreet Singh who scored from a penalty stroke in the 34th minute.
