SC Europa trumped debutants THCC Hamburg twice to start off their campaign. THCC Hamburg did come close to getting their maiden ECS win in the first game of the day but didn't have the firepower to cross the line despite having nine wickets in hand.

The winners of ECS Kummerfeld and ECN Hannover Hitout Kummerfelder Sportverein made a fast start winning both their games comfortably. Muhammad Samiullah and skipper Shoaib Azam scored half-centuries in respective games to bag man of the match awards.
