Top seed Manika and fourth seed Diya crash out

Jammu, Mar 26 (UNI) Top-seeded Manika Batra began the procession of seed fall in the women's singles, and five others joined her in the 84th UTT Inter-State Senior National Table Tennis Championships here at the Gymnasium Hall of Jammu University here on Sunday evening.
It left only two women seeds in the fray, second seed Sreeja Akula of RBI and fifth seed Sutirtha Mukherjee of West Bengal. But, among the unseeded, Ayhika Mukherjee and Archana Kamath advanced to the semi-finals.
In the quarterfinals, all but one match went down to the wire and threatened to derail second seed Sreeja Akula's plans of successfully defending the title. But she fought back to outwit her PSPB opponent, Yashaswini Ghorpade, 4-3. The other paddlers that stormed into the semi-finals included Sutirtha, Ayhika and Archana, all scoring easy wins.
