Young Anmol Kharb once again did the star turn as Indian women beat Thailand 3-2 in a thrilling final to clinch their maiden gold medal at the Badminton Asia Team Championships in Shah Alam on February 18.
The young and sprightly group of Indian women’s team, led by P.V. Sindhu, defied all expectations as it rose to the occasion to come up trumps against two-time bronze medallists Thailand.
It, however, needs to be mentioned that like most of the teams in the competition, Thailand were not at full strength. They were without their top two singles players world No. 13 Ratchanok Intanon and world No. 16 Pornpawee Chochuwong.
