Tennis Tournament Day-6

Suchit - Pai and Abhishek - Rakesh:
Buoyant Suchit was able to pull Pai along with him to win this game in straight sets. But it was not an easy one for them. Abhishek and Rakesh were chipping in with good shots and as we could we see, Pai was still feeling the pressure till the time the first set was won. Once this happened American Pai came out of his self-dug grave and started moving his feet freely on the court. In the second set we saw what we expected of Pai, athletic, focussed and emotional. Suchit, Mr.Ice Man was going good on the other end. As far as Abhishek and Rakesh go, we think they missed out on practice. 3-4 days more and they could have put up a better show. Nonetheless they showed their will to fight, when they fought back from 7 match points to stay in the game just that little longer. One more good point was that all the players were relaxed especially in the second set and were not playing in their shell.

Final scoresheet: Suchit - Pai beat Abhishek - Rakesh: 6-2, 6-1

Today's upcoming action:
Again today we have only one match for the day but guess what this is going to be a crazy one. Be ready to watch the show down between 'Babu Moushaai' Aakash Mukherjee and 'Bihari Babu' Saurav Snehvrat. Mukhi da is known for his styles and strategies and of course he has one hard fought double's victory at the back of his mind. As for Saurav he is a player to reckon with, he is a class apart and plays some amazing tennis but man please get your mindset right.

It's again a sunny forecast from our weather man, with humidity hovering around 55%, so it's going to be pretty humid too.
