UTT Season 7: Sutirtha Inspires Dabang Delhi To A Thrilling Win After Ankur's Upset Rocks Kolkata Tie
Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Indoor: Asian Games medallist Sutirtha Mukherjee delivered when it mattered the most, guiding former champions Dabang Delhi TTC to a thrilling 8-7 victory over HVR Kolkata ThunderBlades after youngster Ankur Bhattacharjee had threatened to turn the contest on its head in Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT) Season 7 at the Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Indoor Stadium on Saturday.
Delhi appeared headed for defeat after Ankur stunned experienced Indian paddler Sathiyan Gnanasekaran in straight games to hand Kolkata the advantage heading into the final rubber. However, Sutirtha responded with a commanding display against her long-time doubles partner Ayhika Mukherjee, winning all three games to complete a remarkable turnaround and preserve Delhi's unbeaten run this season.
The tie began with the two overseas singles fixtures. Egypt's Youssef Abdelaziz recovered from losing the opening game to defeat Romania's Eduard Ionescu 2-1, giving Delhi the early edge. Kolkata hit back immediately through Singapore's Zeng Jian, who edged Spain's Maria Xiao in a closely fought three-game contest to restore parity.
