Kingfisher – 57th Senior National Squash Championship – 2009
15 - 20 December 2009, New Delhi

Saurav asserts his class; Joshna wins ninth crown

Saurav Ghosal affixed his stamp of authority as he toyed with Harinder Pal Singh on way to a 11-2, 11-5, 11-3 victory in the men’s final of the Kingfisher 57th National squash championship.

Though the two train together in Leeds and know each other’s game inside out, there was a distinct difference in class. While the 20-year-old Harinder Pal tried to use power to stay in the match, Saurav teased him with his deft play and mixed up the pace nicely to baffle his opponent.

More than winning his fifth National title, and the fourth on the trot, the 23-year-old Saurav was happy that he was able to entertain the packed gathering, in earning his most convincing title till date.

“It has been a good season. I should have won a few more matches at the international level, and figured in the early 20s rather than the late 20s in the rankings, but overall am happy with my game”, said Saurav, even as he quickly conceded that he deserved a 10-day break from the circuit, to recoup for the more challenging season ahead.

The women’s final provided a little more drama, as the top-seeded Joshna won her ninth National title with a 11-7, 9-11, 11-7, 11-5 victory over Anaka Alankamony.

To her credit, Anaka pulled hard from 6-6 in that second game, as she sent Joshna sprawling on the floor and smacked a couple of winners to be up 9-6. Joshna did fight back with smart shots, but Anaka pulled it off for a well deserved game.

Joshna played a more solid game thereafter even though Anaka latched on to her, at least in the third game.

“Definitely it did not go the way I had planned. She played well, in that second set. Once I started focusing on my game, I was not worried about what she was doing”, said Joshna, who won her seventh National title on the trot.

“It is just another National title”, said Joshna, who knows that Bhuvaneshwari Kumari holds the record with 16 titles.

 56^th ICL National Squash Championship 2008
From 19^th to 23^rd August 2008, Hyderabad, Secunderabad Club, Secunderabad

 8th title for Joshna Chinappa,  Saurav Ghosal & Bala also wins

Defending champion Joshna Chinappa defeated Dipika Pallikal 11-8, 11-7, 11-2 to win her eighth title, in the 56th senior National squash championships at the Secunderabad Club.  

In the men’s final, 3 time National winner Saurav Ghosal (Tamil Nadu) warded off a spirited challenge from Siddarth Suchde (Maharashtra) before winning 11-13, 11-8, 11-5, 11-4.  Siddharth had given tough fight in the semi-finals to no 2 seed Ritwik ( Delhi ) who lost to him due to injury.  

Siddharth gave tough fight in the first game and he won after being 11all by 13-11,  in the second game also he was leading with 8 points before Saurav showed his real game and made it 1-1.But in the next 2 games he seems to have lost his fire and gave away easily to Saurav who won his 4^th National title.

“I dedicate this win to my grandparents — Dr. S.B.N. Ghosal and Dina Ghosal,” an elated Ghosal said.

The women’s event was a one sided affair as Joshna crushed Dipika 3-0 but for the first game in which Dipika gave tough fight to Joshna.  

“It is always a great feeling to be the National champion, though the first title when I was just 14 stands out as very special,” said Joshna.

“Every National is a different proposition and one needs to be consistent over the years to win these titles. I am happy that I am able to do that,” she said.  

In the pro-category, the 23-year-old A. Parthiban defeated his former coach and 10-time champion B. Balamurugan 12-10, 8-11, 11-7, 11-8

 55^th ICL National Squash Championship 2007 &
ICL National Masters Squash Championship 2007  
from 17^th-21^st July 2007, Chennai

 No stopping Joshna Chinappa
Article in The Hindu : 22nd July 2007

Joshna Chinappa bagged her seventh title, while Saurav Ghosal helped himself to his third, beating Siddharth Suchde 9-2, 9-3, 9-0, as the final moments of the singles events produced little surprise but enjoyable competition in the ICL-National squash championship held in Chennai.

At 14 years she had won her first National title and seven years hence Joshna continues to be at the top in the women’s section. Not since her loss to Mekhala Subedar in the 2002 final has Joshna been beaten by an Indian, a clear indication of this Chennai player’s supremacy at the National level.

“A national title is a national title”, that was the motivation for Joshna as she went about her task of fashioning another triumph, a 9-2, 4-9, 9-5, 9-1 win over the yet-to-turn 16 Dipika Pallikal.

The 34-minute contest had its good phases, particularly the down-the-line drives and the drops that both players employed. Where Joshna had the edge was in the way she masked her returns. Twice in the process she had Dipika, trying in vain to get to the ball, sprawled on the wooden floor like a gymnast during a floor exercise routine.

Barring the second game loss, at no point did Joshna feel threatened and sure enough emerged victor in style.

In the men's event Siddharth Suchde, after his fine exhibition in the semifinals was expected to stretch, if not totally surprise, Saurav. The lanky player began well, matching Saurav stroke for stroke. The forehand down-the-line and cross-court shots checked the defending champion and prolonged the rallies.

But Saurav’s ability is not just consistency and swift court movement but also the quick, angular returns that he employs as a surprise weapon. The well-directed forehands to the corner and the soft spun shots to catch the nick proved productive even as it triggered cheers from the gathering.

If steadiness marked Suchde’s display then variations were Saurav’s strategy. As the contest wore on, Saurav began to find the area above the tin unfailingly for winners, while Suchde’s slide was apparent.

Yet another moment of glory came in the professional category where 30-year-old Bala Murugan,  won his 10th National title in a row.

The results: 

Men (final): Saurav Ghosal (TN) bt Siddharath Suchde (Mah) 9-2, 9-3, 9-0.
