The Indian Basketball team went into the game against Kazakhstan in the FIBA Asian Cup Qualifiers 2025 looking for redemption.
After suffering a defeat against Qatar in the first home game, they needed a victory as they were at the bottom of the table after losing all three matches in Group E.
Kazakhstan, meanwhile, went into the game in second place on the points table with one defeat and two wins.
India, however, came out supremely confident and right from the outset, they looked a transformed unit.
The hosts dominated the Kazakhs right through the game and scored their first victory over the opposition in stellar fashion.
Catch all the highlights right here.
India was a transformed squad on the night.
They were far more organized, their offensive play was on the ball and the final outcome was indicative of that.
What's more, they scored loads of 3-pointers and that only helped their cause.
Kazakhstan was well and truly beaten by a better India squad on the night.
