In the Asian Games, India’s women’s squash team, consisting of Joshana Chinappa, Tanvi Khanna, and Anahat Singh, won the bronze medal.
They played against Hong Kong in the semifinals and lost 1-2. Tanvi and young Anahat couldn’t win any games in their matches, but the experienced Joshana Chinappa did well, winning 3-2.
The first match was Tanvi against Chan Sin Yuk. Unfortunately, Tanvi struggled from the start and lost the first two games 6-11 and 7-11. She had a tough time in the third game, losing 3-11.
Then it was Joshana’s turn to keep India’s hopes alive. She had a tough battle against Ho Tze Lok, losing the first game 7-11 but then coming back strong to win the second game 11-7.
Ho Tze Lok took the lead again in the third game with an 11-9 victory. However, Joshana didn’t give up and won the final two games with scores of 11-6 and 11-8.
Since both India and Hong Kong won one match each, it all came down to the deciding match with teenager Anahat. Although she lost 0-3, she put up a good fight, especially in the first and third games.
Anahat started her match well but lost momentum towards the end, losing the opening game 8-11 to Lee Ka Yi.
Lee won the second game 11-7 and was close to winning the third, but Anahat made an impressive comeback, securing eight points in a row before eventually losing 10-12.

Our Indian women’s squash team has won a bronze medal in the Asian Games. Although we were expecting at least a silver, it’s okay. India’s women’s squash team has once again proven that they are one of the best teams in Asia.
