Gaurav,
Janet won the title of ISP-Sprite All India Squash
Report from
Bruno
Top seed Gaurav Nandrajog of Delhi proved too strong for compatriot and
second seed Amjad Khan and the close title match never materialized, with
the former winning 11-6, 11-4, 11-5 to lift the men’s open title in the Rs
2.10 lakh prize money ISP-Sprite All India Squash Open tournament at
the Kendriya Vidyalaya Squash Courts, R K Puram, here, on Wednesday.
Nandrajog earned Rs 50,000 for his efforts at the hands of former CM of MP,
Digvijay Singh, the guest of honour and Mahendra Agarwal, Founder Director
of ISP.
Most of the
matches went according to ranking, though boys under-17 Pehlaj Bajwa of
Chandigarh was taken the distance by second seed Abhijit Malik before laying
his hands on the trophy after winning 4-11, 11-9, 12-10, 6-11, 11-6.
Another player
to impress was the upcoming Janet Vidhi of Delhi, who won the girls under-17
title with a four-game win over Pankhuri Malhotra. The sturdily built Janet
dropped the third game and then doggedly fought to win the closely contested
fourth to register a 11-9, 11-7, 8-11, 15-13 scoreline.
Delhi’s
domination was broken by two players from Maharashtra, Rahil Fazelbhoy and
Yohan Pandole winning the boys under-15 and under-13 title respectively.
While Fazelbhoy beat Delhi’s Dhivj Singh 11-8, 11-5, 11-5, Pandole dropped
a game to Junaid Muzaffar before winning 11-7, 11-5, 11-6.
