The Indian players noway allowed their superior opponents to settle down right from the go.

The Chinese brace was anticipated to roll over their opponents, and it happened precisely the contrary, as the Indians won the first game in just 8 twinkles.

The trend followed in the alternate game too, as the Indians wrapped it in just 9 twinkles as the Chinese players committed several uncoerced crimes, particularly on the forehand.

The home side players mounted a brief fightback, winning the third game.

But the Indians regrouped snappily to assert themselves in the fourth game.

The grand winning moment came when Meng scattered her forehand into the net.

before, Commonwealth Games gold quarterfinalist Manika Batra produced an error-filled game to make an early exit in the quarterfinals of the women’s mates table tennis competition.

Manika went down against world no. 4 Yidi Wang of China 8- 11, 12- 10, 6- 11, 4- 11, 14- 12, 5- 11 and her defeat also marked the end of India’s crusade in the mates event at the Hangzhou Games.

The ace Indian paddler lost the first game 8- 11, as she showed a distinct weakness in her cacography.

Indeed when she won the alternate and fifth games, it was further about the Chinese player making uncoerced crimes in her appetite to close out the points.

The classic illustration came in the fifth game when the Chinese scattered an easy forehand while leading 11- 10, which allowed Manika to claw back.

But in the sixth game, Wang recaptured her focus and peppered Manika’s cacography with important shots that the ultimate failed to reply duly.

Manika tried to fight back with a couple of important forehands but Wang’s astonishing reacquiring capability left the Indian frustrated.

meetly, a cacography error from Manika that brought the match to an end.

Wang’s ray-guided forehand set up Manika fumbling as her cacography return sailed well wide of the table.

before, India’s men’s double brace of Manush Shah and Manav Thakkar also bowed out in the quarterfinals.

They were beaten by South Korean brace Woojin Jang and Jonghoon Lim 8- 11, 11- 7, 10- 12, 11- 6, 9- 11 in the last eight.

The Indians were leading 6- 2 in the fifth game which latterly occurred to 9- 9, but they squandered the chances to go down against the Koreans.

” We fought really well. We took the game to 9- 9 in the last set. We were veritably close to winning but we’ve to take the literacy and move forward,” said Manish after the defeat.

On the experience of playing against the world no. 1 Korean brace, Manush said” They’re presumably the toughest opponents. We had some strategies and moves that we wanted to execute, which we did. But in the end, we could not prevail.”
