Mumbai Meteors defeated the Calicut Heroes 15-9, 15-8, 15-12 in the Prime Volleyball League at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium, Hyderabad on Monday, to continue their perfect run in the competition. Amit Gulia was named the player of the match. Calicut Heroes started the game with passes to the middle, allowing setter and captain Mohan Ukkarpandian to have options in the attack.

But blocker Abhinav Salar's commanding presence for Mumbai allowed the Meteors to tackle Calicut's attacking threats. Ukkrapandian's double touch cost Mumbai an early super point, and the Meteors took the lead. Shubham Chaudhary's strong spikes did not allow any Calicut's defence any momentum, while Mathias Loftesnes too tested the opposition.
