Meanwhile, Maharashtra number one, Kreishh Gurbaxani continued with his impressive run of form to brush aside the late fightback from India number eight Shahbaz Adil Khan (PSPB) by carving out a 4-2 (69-42, 69-12, 104-32, 44-70, 54-67, and 71-1) victory, his third successive win in Group-F and a place in the pre-quarter-final.
