The Singapore Smash World Cup has been a stage for both triumph and heartbreak for India’s table tennis stars. Manush Shah and Manav Thakkar have successfully advanced to the men’s doubles quarterfinals after a dominant 3-0 victory over Wan-Chung-Ting and Yi-Kwan-To of Hong Kong in the pre-quarterfinals.
In the mixed doubles category, Manush Shah and Diya Chitale faced a tough challenge and were eliminated after a 1-3 loss in the quarterfinals. The women’s doubles pair of Yashaswini Ghorpade and Australia’s Ji-Min-Hyung also faced disappointment as they were defeated in the pre-quarterfinals.
