Chinese Taipei beats Asian giant China at FIBA Asian women’s U-18 basketball championship

The Hindu  

Chinese Taipei produced one of the biggest upsets of the FIBA Asian women’s U-18 basketball championship at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium here on Wednesday, with a hugely impressive 74-61 victory over World No.4 and 16-time champion China in a Group-A contest. The last time Taipei defeated China was 20 years ago in the Asia u-18 championship in 2002 in Taipei. Japan thrashed Indonesia 117-35, Australia beat New Zealand 111-44 and Korea got the better of host India 69-47. Though it put up a relatively better show in the second, it was only in the third quarter that Taipei took the game away from the Asian powerhouse and 16-time champion.
