Birmingham: The Indian men’s table tennis team maintained their supremacy in the Commonwealth Games by winning their second successive gold medal.
On Tuesday, G Sathiyan and Harmeet Desai put up a stellar performance to overcome Singapore 3-1 in the final.
Harmeet and Sathiyan gave India a flying start by beating Yong Izaac Quek and Yew En Koen Pang 11-8, 11-7, 11-5 in the opening doubles rubber.
Veteran Achantha Sharath Kamal was not at his best and went down 7-11, 14-12, 11-3, 11-9 to Zhe Yu Clarence Chew.
But then Sathiyan and Harmeet brought their A-game to the table to clinch their respective singles matches.
Sathiyan bounced back from a 3-8 deficit in the opening game against Koen Pang before clinching the rubber 12-10, 11-7, 11-7, 11-4.
Harmeet then sealed the gold with an impressive 11-8, 11-5, 11-6 drubbing of Chew in the third singles that gave India an unbeatable 3-1 lead in the title clash.
