IBSF World Snooker: Indian cueists good run continue
4 Dec 2013 4:07 AM IST
Manan Chandra led the way with a convincing win as Indian cueists capped off a good day in the IBSF World Snooker Championship, on Monday.
Chandra continued his dominance in the 15-Red format as he defeated Egypt’s Karim Elabd 4-1.
Brijesh Damani and Shahbaaz Adil Khan also emerged triumphant, winning their respective group league matches without much hassle. While Damani made a clean sweep with a 4-0 win over local challenger Maris Volajs, Khan also gave ample proof of his talent as he thumped Malta’s Mario Brincat 4-1 in a one-sided contest.
In the women’s section, Mumbai’s Arantax Sanchis registered her fourth successive win in the tournament when she beat Poland’s Dalia Alska in straight frames.
Sanchis reigned supreme on the green baize as she did not allow her opponent to take advantage. Sanchis has, so far, lost only two frames in the tournament and is well on her course to top the group.
Chitra M eked out her first win in the tournament when she defeated Nastya Toumilovitch of Belarus in straight frames to finally shrug off her losing streak.
However, there was disappointment in store for Varsha Sanjeev and Neena Praveen, both of whom lost their respective matches to Ng On Yee and Amornrat Uamduang.
