A humdinger of a match to mark the beginning of the tournament.
League Match 1: Nandeesh/Harshi vs Sushil/Priyanka
Toss: Nandeesh/Harshi
Match Report:
Nandeesh started off with a bang by pocketing a white & black with his 1st shot. Harshi took the cue and started sending one pawn after the other into the pocket. Within no time they had a big lead.
Lady luck who was with Sushil till lunch time had deserted him & Priyanka looked pretty much out of sorts. Harshi was so overwhelmed by her own performance that she slowed down a bit.
Meanwhile Sushil and Priyanka slowly and steadily crawled their way back into the game. By 13th minute it was anybody's game with both teams breathing on each other's neck. By 18th min both the teams were left only with the final shot at the queen. It was a very tense last minute when Nadeesh pocketed the striker along with the queen and failed in the follow up. It took a nerverless shot from Harshi to tie the game seconds before the 20th minute.
This led to a super strike - The team taking the least number of chances to pocket the pawn kept in the centre of the board would win. The 1st round was tied with both the teams taking 3 chances with many ooh-aah moments. In the 2nd round ,Priyanka in a moment offluke brilliance (:P) beyond anyone's expectation pocketed within a single chance which Harshi couldnt beat. Thus Sushil/Priyanka qualify for the quarter finals. But Nandeesh/Harshi have a very good chance of making it as the 8th team for the QF. Let us wait and watch.
The crowd was thoroughly thrilled to bits. Looks like we can expect more such matches in the coming days.
Winners: Sushil/Priyanka
