Achanta Sharath Kamal Enters Table Tennis Men's Singles Final, G Sathiyan To Fight For Bronze
Indian table tennis legend Achanta Sharath Kamal defied age and produced a class act to reach the men's singles final, but G Sathiyan lost his semifinal contest at the Commonwealth Games here on Sunday. The 40-year-old paddler, who won a bronze medal in the last edition in Gold Coast, defeated home country's Paul Drinkhall 11-8, 11-8, 8-11, 11-7, 9-11, 11-8 to reach his second CWG final. The only other time Sharath, fourth seeded here, made it to the final, he returned with a gold in the 2006 edition in Melbourne.
