Day 3 - The quest continues !

This is where the actual fun begins. Archimedes had lost to Copernicus. They had to win today to be in contention. So was the case with Socrates. Having lost to Plato, it was do or die situation for them.

Our satta bazaar could not predict which side the volleyball will fall. 50 - 50 chances for Zeno and Socrates. And Archimedes might just upset Galileo, the bazaar said.

The day began with the battle of Archimedes and Galileo. Galileo did not have their captain Hemal and it cost them dearly. Archimedes rose to the occasion and yes, they did get their Eureka ! moment to win comfortably with 15 - 6, 15 - 8.

The second big match of the day was between Socrates and Zeno. In Socrates, it was return of the Maaru Chhu man, Vishal Jaani. But if there was any doubt that yesterday's win of Zenoids was any fluke, it was all buried deep down in that court. A grueling battle that last over an hour and spanned over three sets saw that Zeno are at the top of the Philosophers with two win. Pop philosophy, anyone ?

Zenoids played like true champions and came back after losing the first set to win 10-15, 15 - 11, 15 - 10.

With so many upsets and victories, the championship is wide wide open. Who will make it to the last four, the quest continues !
