Under Dogs Hyderabad taking off with winning spree from quarter finals onwards , reaching the finals by upsetting the apple cart of carom giants Maharashtra accounted for Karnataka to lift the coveted Men”s Team championship title.. The victory is all the more much sweeter for Hyderabad whose players were in the lower rung of Indian rankings. L Suryaprakash gave a head lead to Hyderabad when he beat JN Shyamsunder of Karnataka a 25-12, 25-14 in a convincing straight game victory. However, D Ravinder Goud and E Ashok Kumar of Hyderabad succumbed meekly in spite of winning the first game at 25-12 by loosing the next two games at 12-25, 6-25. This meant that the second singles in progress between MA Hakeem of Hyderabad and Zaheer Pasha of Karnataka would decide the winner. Hakeem took the first game at 25-13,falling into a bad patch to lose the second at 10-25. After losing the first three boards in the third game, Hakeem decided to go aggressive making a white slam in the fourth board to lead at 12-9. Zaheer Pasha fought back to go to 23-16 from this point Hakeem took three boards in a row to win the game at 25-23 and to win the match and get to Gold for Hyderabad.

Carrom Demonstration in Poland

Our Carrom demonstration was very nice. The weather was wonderful so there was no problem of playing carrom outdoor.We started at 1 pm and there was no brake up to 8 pm. A lot of people came and try to play but unfortunately it is not a very simple game. We were at kids zone and there was a little too much kids under 10 years old but they also try to play and were delighted when some coins drop to the holes. Around 10 Indian people came and we played carrom together. Maybe some of them join our carrom group playing in Warsaw. The quantity of our webside visitors has risen after the demonstration. We will send you some photo afterwards.
Best regards,
Paulina
