Double delight for in-form Bhaskar

Bhaskar scored a 12-51, 63-61, 91-8, 40-82, 57-21, 67-54 win over Jasim Tawin in the morning session before outclassing MS Arun 68-21, 14-62, 61-50, 73-46, 55-18 later in the evening to maintain his unbeaten run and remain on top of the Super League table.
Bhaskar has now registered five wins in as many matches.

However, IH Manudev’s unbeaten run came to an end when he went down 50-61, 30-97, 52-62, 66-39, 66-22, 35-80 to D Raj Kumar after posting a 57-35, 23-67, 65-44, 1-63, 73-29, 96-58 win over Balaji Reddy in his opening encounter for the day.

Manudev now has four wins in his five matches. Manudev, who came to the KSBA hall in search of his fifth consecutive win, could not start off on a desired note as he lost first three-frames and it pushed him to brink of danger in the best of seven frame match.
However, Manudev was not ready go down without a fight as he clinched fourth and fifth frame (66-39, 66-22) quite comfortably.   But in the crucial sixth frame he lost his nerve, succumbing 35-80.

In the day’s other match MS Arun sparkled in his 68-30, 61-30, 32-58, 57-33, 69-30 win over Ajay Bhushan
