Damandeep Singh struck a second-half brace to help Punjab National Bank bounce back and oust defending champions Army XI 2-1 in the semifinal of the 119th All India Beighton Cup Hockey Tournament, here today.
PNB will clash against last edition's runners-up Indian Oil who got the better of Air India in the other semi-final of the day at the SAI artificial turf.
The defending champions went one up at half time when Pawal Lakra slammed the board in the 21st minute but their joy was short-lived as Damandeep struck back to back goals in the 40th and 57th minute for their upset win.
Former Internationals Gagandeep Singh (20th and 40th) and Deepak Thakur (50th and 55th) dominated the proceedings for Indian Oil's 4-2 rout of Air India.
Aiyappa PK (15th) and Samir Dad (55th) scored one each for the airmen.
