Pallikal-Ghosal bag mixed doubles bronze in squash at CWG

Indian mixed doubles pair of Saurav Ghoshal and Dipika Pallikal won a bronze medal in the squash event of the Commonwealth Games here on Sunday. In a repeat of the previous edition’s final, Ghosal and Pallikal barely broke a sweat as they registered an 11-8, 11-4 win over the Australian combination of Donna Lobban and Cameron Pillay in the bronze medal play-off.

The Indian pair, who won a silver medal in the mixed team event at the 2018 Gold Coast edition, lost to Joel King and Paul Cole in the semi-finals.

This is the second medal for Ghosal at the Games, having won India’s first medal in the men’s singles event earlier this week.
