“Its the ‘lets kill them’ attitude that we both share”- Ajin and Vinoy should Think Twice.

Arun: Hello
Sojish: Hello
Arun: Before you meet Amal and the singles, Amal alerted you that he is going to shed your blood, how had you faced it?
Sojish: Game plan against Amal was very simple . Amal is really good at spinning  the ball and he is a thinking player.  To force him to make errors ,  I increased the pace of my serve and returns .
Sojish: I didnt even spend time between the serves , because that would give him time to make a plan.
Sojish: By gods grace , everything worked in my favour.
Arun: Before you take off for Doubles, you have mentally overpowered Amal,
Arun: do you think that is going to help you out? Keep in mind Ajin and Vinoy were the finalists in the last series…
Sojish: A win against anyone is motivating .

CRE’s Strike the Board: 3 matches 3 Wins

Poornam 22nd June 2006: The 5th Day has done with complete surrender to Cre team. In the direct sets Nijoy beat Anoop Antony(21-14, 21-17) Vipin beat Sooraj (21-7, 21-13) and in doubles Arun&Vipin beat Abhijith&Winston (21-12, 21-15)

Anoop was really struggling against Nijoy to return and countable smashes were simply unanswerable. In the second set, although, Anoop tried to come back, Nijoy closed the set with an easy pace.

On another singles, Vipin made an easy door to second round. Although his performance was not on par with his usual stats, he won the sets without much discomfort.

The full hand over the table continued in doubles and Abhjith-Winston team could not even think about a chance.

“I will fight till my last drop sheds”: Shabeel on his Expectation

I was tensed during my first singles match while playing with Linto Paul , because I was not sure how does he play … But I got through that match with good seed score .

Now Im looking forward to play with Madhav , I feel a little confidence and I wont give up … I will fight till my last drop sheds …

For Bobsports, Lal

Slow and Steady Wins the Match: Silpi the New Sun

Poornam: (2007-06-19) Amazing, simply amazing, Silpi won the first round having beaten the second seed Ajin by 2-1. It was all about patience and accuracy and consistency is the name of the game.

On the second day of Cup of Life 2007, Ajin was beaten by Silpi. At the start of the match, it was Silpi who surprised the runner up of last cup of life series. Ajin, who expected a cool move to second round had really struggled to play on his usuall pace.

Silpi with his out standing patience, took the control over the match except for the second set where Ajin won. “It’s my first match, it’s very, very cool,” Silpi said. “I played a great match today. It’s amazing I’m very happy.”

In the second round he will meet either Lal or Tharun.

On his assessment on match Sojish, a veteran player said ” “I think Silpi played really, really well, In the second set I thought Ajin was about to make a come back.”

“Ajin would not have played in Silpi’s slow pace. He should have played his usual game.” He added.

However it’s just a note to the top seeded guys, “You have a real opponent with ultimate patience”
