Delhi outfits, Comptroller and Auditor General and Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited, had mixed fortunes in the 52nd All India Bombay Gold Cup hockey tournament here.
CAG, who had been trounced 6-1 by Bharat Petroleum Corporation in the final of the same competition two years ago, fought hard today to come from a goal down and hold BPCL to a 1-1 draw at the MHAL-Mahindra Stadium.
CAG were down 0-1 following a 20th minute strike off a penalty stroke award, by BPCL's Varun Kumar before securing parity in the 60th minute through a field goal scored by Imran Khan in the Pool B game.
ONGC, on the other hand, took a commanding 4-0 lead at half-time and then increased it to 5-0 soon after the break.
But Customs pulled one back before ONGC notched their sixth and last goal via a penalty corner strike by Mandeep Singh who completed a hat-trick.
Mandeep had earlier scored his side's fourth and fifth goals, both field efforts, on either side of the break.
The first three goals for the winning side were notched by Gurjant Singh (field goal), Nilam Xess (penalty corner) and Navjot Singh (field goal) in the second, 18th and 20th minutes.
Navpreet Singh scored the consolation goal for the Customs side via a penalty corner in the 45th minute.
