SRFI 1 STAR EVENT

All winners with their trophies

Double delight for Adik brothers, Druv stuns No. 1 Tanay for U-11 crown (28/02/2013)

It was all in the family for the Adik siblings, Aryaman and Adik of Otters Club, who won the boys under-15 and under-13 titles, respectively, in the Rs. 1.5 lakh NSCI Juniors & Doubles Open Squash Championship, at the National Sports Club of India.

Second seed Advait kicked off a rewarding day when he overcame top seed Aryan Parekh of Matunga Gymkhana 11-9, 11-6, 8-11, 6-11, 11-9 in a thriller that went down to the wire. Advait surged to a 2-0 lead to take Aryan by surprise. But Aryan, who was strong, both on the backhand and forehand, used all his resources to stage a brilliant recovery to force the decider. The exciting contest between the arch rivals could have gone either way but Advait held on grimly to a slender lead in the final set to fashion his maiden win over the favourite.

Second seed Aryaman halted No. 4 Dev Vazirani of Khar Gymkhana with a 3-1 victory after the latter had shocked top seed Chaitanya Shah of Bombay Gymkhana in the semi-finals. With Shah out of the fray, Aryaman’s path was clear, but Vazirani came up with a stiff challenge in the second, third and fourth sets after an indifferent start.

Dev’s younger sibling, second seed Druv made amends when he shocked top seed Tanay Punjabi of Otters Club 12-10, 11-8, 7-11, 9-11, 13-11 in the most riveting championship round. Following a 2-0 lead after a grueling start, Dev put Tanay under early pressure. But the latter staged a remarkable recovery to live up to his reputation. The decider was anybody’s when it stretched into extra points before Dev held on to take it away for one of the most astonishing triumphs.

While the formidable CCI pair of Rishad Pandole and Sahill Vora won the Open Doubles crown, Aishwarya Singh and Abhishek Agarwal, both of Jindal Squash Academy, won the boys under-17 and under-19 titles, respectively.

Ananya Dabke was a significant girls’ under-11 winner after overcoming Aarya Ogale in a thriller. Diya Joukhani of Khar Gymkhana, Aishwarya Bhattarcharya of Bombay Gymkhana and Akanksha Salunkhe of Goa were the other title winners among the girls.
