Leaving Indian table tennis in safe hands: Sharath Kamal
March 30, 2025
|The Morning Standard
THE curtains came down on paddler Achanta Sharath Kamal's glorious career after his straight-games loss to Snehit Suravajjula in the round of 16 at the WTT Star Contender, being held at the Jawaharlal Nehru indoor stadium here on Saturday.
Playing in front of about 500-odd spectators, Sharath went down 9-11, 8-11, 9-11 to wildcard and doubles partner Snehit in about 25 minutes. "Everybody thought, everybody was expecting that (I will win), but I knew the fact that it's going to be very tough. Because also three matches yesterday (Friday), I'm not being in the best shape physically. Everybody expects me to be the favourite against the Indian boys, but personally I would have loved to face a foreigner because I can then go all guns blazing," said Sharath after his loss.
