  Indian Girls beat HongKong to make history while in Men’s India loses to Pakistan at 16th Asian Squash Team Championship
  Kuwait 6th May 2012
     

Making history or getting into the record books in sport requires "discipline, flair and a never-say-die fighting spirit,". And the Indian women's squash team of Dipika Pallikal, Joshna Chinappa, Anaka Alankamony and Aparjitha Balamurukan displayed all the three qualities while making history at the Asian Team Squash Championship in Kuwait.

The third-seeded Indians shocked top seeds Hong Kong in the final to lift the women's crown, with Joshna and Dipika outplaying higher-ranked opponents. This is the first time Indian squash players have won an Asian title, their best being third place finishes in both the men's and women's section in 2010.

However, it was a mixed day for the Indians with the men's team of Sourav Ghosal, Siddharth Suchde, Harinder Pal Sandhu and Mahesh Mangaonkar going down to Pakistan in the title clash.

But that didn't stop the Indians girls from celebrating during the awards ceremony, where they climbed up the podium wrapped in the tri-colour.

The Indians went into the final against Hong Kong as underdogs with Dipika (World No. 14) set to take on Annie Au, who is currently ranked No. 6 in the World. Joshna (World No. 71), who is coming back from an injury layoff, had the formidable task of taking on World No. 16 Joey Chan.

But Joshna, who opened the final tie for the Indians, went into the match all guns blazing, surprising Chan.

The match went into five games but Joshna always had the upper hand in crucial rallies.

Then Dipika came up with a disciplined effort against Au. Dipika played to stick to the basics and play a no-frills game against her higher-ranked opponent and the Chennai girl stuck to that game plan and won the title for India.

In the men’s Mehboob, who took on Ghosal, was scoring winners at will from all over the court. But Ghosal stepped up his play too and stretched it to the fifth and deciding game but Mehboob's inspired show prevailed.

Suchde, meanwhile, began on the back foot against Zaman and came back from two games down to take the match to the decider where he faltered.

India could not win a medal in the women's singles as Dipika Pallikal and Joshana Chinappa crashed out in the quarter-finals.

Pakistan wins the Asian men's championship 2010

CHENNAI: Pakistan and Hong Kong China emerged winners of the men's and women's team events at the Asian squash championships held at Indian Squash Academy. 

Malaysia failed to retain the title after a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Pakistan in the final. National number three Mohd Nafiizwan Adnan went down 5-11,11-7, 4-11, 4-11 to Yasir Butt of Pakistan in the first tie. 

Newly crowned Asian champion Mohd Azlan Iskandar was a big letdown as all the attention was on him to level the score but he floundered to go down 8-11, 9-11, 11-13 to Aamir Atlas Khan. 

Azlan defeated Aamir in the final of the individual final after the Pakistani player retired in the third set because of a leg injury.

Pakistan stopped Malaysia from winning the team title for the third straight time. Malaysia won the last two editions in Taiwan (2006) and Kuwait (2008) by defeating Pakistan on both occasions.  

 

Debendranath Sarangi, the government of Tamil Nadu's sports secretary and Srivatsan Subramaniam, the SRFI secretary general, gave away the prizes.

Asian team event championship: 8th May 2010.

Hongkong women beat India to emerge champions in 15th Asian squash championship

Chennai: Indian women's hopes of regaining the title were dashed as they put up a poor show against second seeded Hong Kong who crushed them 2-0 to regain the team title in the 15th Asian Squash championships at the Indian Academy courts.

It was a disappointing day for India as the team's star campaigner Joshna Chinnappa went down tamely. In the first singles match, Anika Alankamony, the rising talent, who was the youngest to win a WISPA singles title earlier this year, showed promise in the first game, up 2-6 against Goey Chana drew level 6-6 but Anika went on to win 7-11. However, Chan recouped in time to win the next three games 11-1, 11-9,11-7.

This put immense pressure on India's no 1 Joshna Chinnappa. But the world no 48, failed to hit form against Hong Kong's Rebecca Chieu, seeded no 2 and the singles runner up. Like Anaka, Joshna also began in style with a 7-4 lead in the first game.  But Chieu with more experience behind her, drew level 7-7 with some fine shots even as Joshna failed to hold her nerve. Rebecca won 11-7, 11-2, 11-5.

The 2-0 lead meant that Hong Kong saved themselves the trouble of playing the third singles in which Annie Au was to take on Dipika Pallikal. The Hong Kong eves required just 48 minutes to sweep the Indian eves off their feet, as it were.  

Rebecca said “the win against Malaysia in the semifinals gave us the confidence and determination to win the crown

Hong Kong women had last won the team title in the year 2000.

11th Asian Squash Championships at Kuala Lumpur (12-5-2002)  

 INDIAN WOMEN GET MAIDEN SILVER, MEN SETTLE FOR 4TH POSITION

Indian women team who had reached the historic finals lost tamely to mighty Malaysian team in the 11th Asian Squash Championship. The Indian women's team comprising Joshna, Vaidehi Reddy (who was adjudged the most promising player), Mekhala Subedar and Priyanka Yadav (reserve) shocked last year's silver medallists, Hong Kong, beat Korea, and finally strong Japan, to enter the finals.  It was the very first time that any Indian squash team reached a final of the Senior Asian Championship. This, in itself, is an achievement, as the two girls, Joshna and Vaidehi, are only 15 and 16 years old, respectively and were playing women over 24 years old

FINAL:
Malaysia bt India 3-0 Sharon Wee bt Mekhala Subedar 9-0, 9-0, 9-5 ;
