CHAMPION STUFF: North Bengal’s Arnab Adhikari, who won the sub-junior boys’ title.
KOCHI: Maharashtra’s Mallika Bhandarkar was quite familiar with her opponent Charvi Kawle’s game. The two are from the same State, and best friends. On Friday, fresh from her under-12 triumph in a world junior tour event in China, the Nagpur-based Mallika took a little over half hour to defeat Charvi in straight games and win the sub-junior girls title in the OSEL National ranking table tennis tournament at the Rajiv Gandhi indoor stadium here on Friday evening. North Bengal’s Arnab Adhikari, who packed off the top-seeded Avik Das in the semifinals, continued the good work and won the sub-junior boys title, beating Maharashtra’s Devdatta Fadanavis 4-1 in the the sub-junior boys final. “I kept on attacking, even when I was down. That strategy worked,” said the 13-year-old Arnab. The results: Sub-junior boys’ final: Arnab Adhikari (NB) bt Devdatta Fadanavis (Mah) 12-10, 7-11, 11-6, 11-9, 11-9. Semifinals: Arnab bt Avik Das (NB) 11-9, 11-8, 11-9, 12-14, 6-11, 11-5; Devdatt bt Aditya Moitra (WB) 11-4, 8-11, 11-5, 9-11, 12-10, 7-11, 11-3.
