Pakistani women reaches International Series Badminton final

Pakistani women reach the finals in the Pakistan International Badminton Series being played in Islamabad.

Pakistan’s wonder girl Mahoor Shehzad reached the finals of both girls’ singles and doubles in Younex Sunrise Pakistan International Badminton Series Tournament 2019 here at Rodham Hall.

The Pakistan International Badminton Series is underway at Pakistan Sports Complex Roadham Hall, which hosts 12 countries including Afghanistan, Iran, Malaysia and Thailand.

Mahoor provided the jam-packed arena something to cheer about, as she was up against Maldives’ Neela Najeeb in a keenly-contested battle, where both the girls showed their potential and skills and fought for each and every point till the end.

In the first game, Neela settled down well and started dictating her terms, but Mahoor never lost hope and kept on fighting, while the charged-up crowd was also right behind her.

Mahoor then started playing her natural aggressive game and it proved to be a see-saw battle, as both the girls were not ready to concede.

The second game started with both the players once again exchanging top class badminton skills and fighting for each and every point, but after playing so well, Neela all of a sudden ran out of gas, as Mahoor’s powerful returns and sensational smashes were too hot to handle for her opponent.

Mahoor will take on top seed Iranian Soraraya Aghaeihajiagha in the final tournament to be played today (Sunday).
