As expected, Sachin Kumar and Vikas Berwal continued their winning momentum but it was heart-break for Param Pun who suffered defeat at the hands of Dushayant Agarwal in the qualifying round of the boys’ Under-16 category in the on-going St Stephen’s AITA Talent Series Tennis Tournament for under-12 and under-16 Boys and Girls at CLTA, Tennis Stadium, Sector 10, on Sunday.

While Sachin outclassed Abhijeet Singh 8-4, Vikas recorded an easy 8-4 win over Saahil Rawat. On the other hand, Param went down 4-8 to Dushayant. In the boy’s Under-12 category, Digvijay Singh Pratap humbled Sarvesh Maria 8-0.
