While The Topspinners overcame High Tide 5-2, King Pong were dominant in their 5-1 victory against Blazing Bashers and they will now battle it out in the summit clash to decide which team walks away with the bragging right as the champions.
Divya Mahajan gave Topspinners the perfect start defeating Senhora D’Souza 11-8, 11-8, 11-8 in the women’s singles which was the opening rubber. She later team up with Nishant Kulkarni and they got the better of the High Tide pair of Shubham Ambre and Senhora D’Souza 12-10, 11-6, 11-3 in the mixed doubles tie. The others who contributed towards Topspinners win was Dev Shroff who overcame Shivam Das 6-11, 11-7, 11-6, 11-3 in the junior boys’ singles; Aryan Dave who prevailed over Yashas Todi 11-7, 4-11 11-9, 12-10 in the cadet boys’ singles and the veteran/men doubles combination of Abhay Mehta and Nishant Kulkarni who scored an easy 11-4, 13-11, 11-9 win over Ram Rokra and Shubham Ambre to complete the win.

In contrast King Pong lost just one rubber after Priti Bhosale won the first rubber defeating Shweta Parte 11-9, 9-11, 8-11, 11-7, 11-9 in a tense women’s singles tie. Priti’s teammate Mudit Dani suffered a defeat losing to the experienced Noel Pinto 7-11, 9-11, 7-11 in the men’s singles. King Pong won the remaining four rubbers to close out the match.

King Pong’s Raegan Albuquerque tamed Shaurya Pednekar 11-7, 11-9, 11-8 in the junior boys singles; Mudit Dani and Priti Bhosale combined perfectly to outlast Noel Pinto and Shweta Parte 11-9, 11-9, 11-9 in the mixed doubles encounter; Manasi Chiplunkar overcame Mihika Rohira 11-5, 3-11, 11-4, 11-6 in the junior girls’ singles before Havish Asrani outplayed OM Chopade 11-4, 11-3, 11-5 in the cadet boys singles match to wrap up the issue in King Pongs favour.
