National Ranking (NZ) TT proves a boon for Jeho and Anusha

Chandigarh, Jun 27 (UNI) For H. Jeho of the Petroleum Sports Promotion Board Academy (PSPBA), Ajmer, and Anusha Kutumble of Madhya Pradesh the season-opening 11Even Sports National Ranking (North Zone) Table Tennis Championships at the Panjab University Gymnasium Indoor Hall here proved to be a real boon.
And the two deservingly won their respective gold medals in the Sub-Junior Boys and Girls events. But it was never a cakewalk, at least for the boy from Mizoram. He had to slug it out against another PSPBA boy, Alberto Lrruta, to carve out a 4-3 verdict, while Anusha made it look so simple a case against Delhi’s Vanshika Bhargava in her 4-1 triumph.
The top-seeded Jeho, and Alberto trains at the Ajmer Academy under Chinese coach Yin Wei, and both know each other’s game too well. It also, in a way, explains how and why the final went down to the wire. If Jeho is adept at both attack and defence, Alberto who is also from Mizoram, is a good attacking player. But for the few unforced errors in the decider, it was anybody’s title.
