UTT 2024: Manush Helps Ahmedabad Stun Goa; U Mumba Beat Dabang Delhi (Ld)
Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium: Captain Manush Shah led Ahmedabad SG Pipers from the front as the debutants recorded their first win in Ultimate Table Tennis 2024 beating defending champions Goa Challengers on a day of upsets in which U Mumba TT overcame Dabang Delhi TTC despite G. Sathiyan scoring an upset win over World No.20 Quadri Aruna.
Shah beat two-time Olympian Mihai Bobocica 2-1 in their match - after partnering Bernadette Szocs to achieve the same score-line in the mixed doubles - as the team from Ahmedabad beat reigning champions Goa Challengers at the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium here on Saturday.
Ahmedabad SG Pipers flew off the blocks, courtesy of an outstanding display from Frenchman Lilian Bardet, who made amends for his defeat on Friday to 17-year-old Ankur Bhattacharjee by beating Harmeet Desai 3-0 in the first men’s singles. Bernadette Szocs followed in her teammate’s footsteps, bouncing back from her loss against Ayhika Mukherjee with a sweeping victory over young Yashaswini Ghorpade in the first women’s singles match of the tie.
