IN a historic achievement, the India squash team persevered to complete an unprecedented three gold medal sweep in the men's, women's and mixed doubles at the Asian Doubles Championships in Kushing, Malaysia, which concluded on Thursday.
This gold medal hat-trick has never been done before at any Asian or any World doubles squash championships.
In an intense men's doubles match, Abhay Singh and Velavan Senthilkumar saw off the threat of Noor Zaman and Nasir Iqbal of Pakistan. Despite losing the first game 9-11, Abhay and Velavan responded well to recover. With better length, discipline and court coverage, they outpaced the Pakistani pair in the second and third games. The 88-minute long match saw the Indian duo dominate long rallies forcing the Pakistan pair into unforced errors.
