Delhi, Maharashtra register easy first-round wins in Sub-Junior National Table Tennis

CHANDIGARH, DEC 18 (UNI) The teams from Delhi and Maharashtra A made a grand opening to their title campaign in the Sub-Junior Boys section as they were merciless against their hapless opponents, Chandigarh and Manipur, winning their first-round group matches 3-0 in the 11Sports 80th Cadet and Sub-Junior National Table Tennis Championships at the Basketball Hall of Sector 42 Sports Complex here today.
Joining the title-contenders, registering first-round triumphs, were Gujarat, PSPB Academy, Punjab, Assam, North Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra B, Kerala, Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka.
The Delhi boys made a clam beginning with Aadarsh Chetri beating Chandigarh’s Divyang Sharma 11-1, 11-6, 11-1 as Payas Jain consolidated, after some struggle, when he won over Arnav Aggarwal 11-6, 9-11, 11-5, 7-11, 11-5. It was surprising to see Payas struggling to find his feet against Arnav who came back strongly after training twice over. But Jain went into attack mode in the decider and won it much to the relief of the Delhi camp.
