Pakistan’s Noor Zaman displayed resilience and determination, ultimately triumphing over his Indian counterpart Abhay Singh in a grueling 51-minute contest.

Noor Zaman won by 8-11, 12-10, 8-11, and 8-11.

In the second game, Pakistan’s Asim Khan outclassed India’s Saurav Ghosal. Asim Khan showcased exceptional skills, beating his Indian opponent with a score of 3-0.

However, Saurav Ghosal brought India back into the game by defeating Muhammad Amir Khan by 3-0.

The Pakistani squash player barely stood a chance against his Indian counterpart. Saurav dominated all three games, not allowing his arch-rival to get used to the pace of the match.

He took away the game within a blink of an eye and brought the game back on level terms with a 3-0 victory (11-3, 11-5, 11-1).

Pakistan has won 2-1 against India in the men's team squash event.
