Asian Games 2023: India wins gold in squash men’s team event with 2-1 victory against Pakistan

The Hindu  

At 10-8 in the 5th game with the gold medal on the line, it would have been natural for most Indians to assume the match was as good as over. The 25-year-old held his nerves, took off four straight points against Noor Zaman and then let out a huge roar, throwing his racket into the stands as the Indian men’s team reclaimed the Asian Games gold in style, defeating Pakistan 2-1 in the decider of the final match. There was a lot of noise when we lost to Pakistan three nights ago, I am pretty sure I won’t hear any of that tonight,” he said after the game. India had lost the opening tie 3-0 with Mahesh Mangaokar going down to Nasir Iqbal for the second time in three days, the match was interrupted often but not as ill-tempered as the previous one. We knew it would be hard and it was.” “Last time, both Abhay and Mahesh got emotionally charged against Pakistan, and my belief is that that’s not the way to play them.
