Young Indian shuttlers Sameer Verma
and Saili Rane notched up contrasting
victories in men’s and women’s singles
respectively to reach the finals of the
$15,000 Bahrain International
Challenge at Isa Town.
Last Sunday, Sameer had won the
men’s singles title, while Saili had to be
content with the runners-up finish in
the $5,000 Bahrain International
series. In less than a week, the duo
once again fought their way to the
finals.
Sameer saw off compatriot Rahul
Yadav Chittaboina 21-13 21-17 in 38
minutes. Saili followed suit with a
19-21 21-13 21-13 win over
Indonesia’s Gabriela Meilani Moningka
in a contest that lasted one hour and
seven minutes.
Sameer, seeded 11th, will now take on
fourth seeded Zi Liang Derek Wong of
Singapore, while Saili will fight it out
against fifth seed Nitchaon Jindapol.
