India win South Asian badminton titleGuwahati, Dec 5 (IANS) India lived up to their tag of favourites, walloping Nepal 3-0 to win the first ever South Asian Regional Badminton Tournament (team championship) here on Tuesday.

India who came into the final without losing a single match continued their good run with Aryaman Tandon drawing the first blood in the boys' singles competition.

Taking on the Dipesh Dhami of Nepal, Aryaman was in his elements from the word go and picked up an easy 21-9, 21-15 victory to give the hosts the early initiative.

 

Local star Ashmita Chaliha continued the Indian juggernaut as she sailed to a 21-9, 21-6 win over Rashila Maharjan in the girls' singles.
