Ping Pong Tournament in Conexant

Won

Excerpts from the E-Mail that was sent as a build-up to the Ping Pong tournament finale (talking about third eye opinions)

Singles Category: Pramod Narayana vs Vaibhav Madan (18:00)

About Pramod : Looks deceive!!!...and he is the perfect example of why. Hidden behind that ever-smiling face & boyish persona is the giant killer who has conquered the likes of Rahul Setia, Jasmeet Chaddha & above all the man who was expected to stroll away with the winners cheque...Chirag Gupta. The critics consider him to be the most complete player on the Conexant Ping Pong scene. With due respect to his opponent he is the favourite to finish at the top of the podium.

What to watch out for : The killer backhand & forehand smash loaded with top spin.

About Vaibhav : They say that he was the king of the Ping Pong jungle during the company's Ficon & Globespan days. Form is temporary but class is permanent.... he has proved this by shaking of that rust and storming his way into the Finals. He has not played in ages, yet he has conquered the likes of Mayur Singh & Saikat Sanyal with surgical precision. If Ping Pong was only about mental strength then he would have been the undisputed champion. No one has been able to catch a glimpse of emotion on his face whenever he has played. Will he finally give in to the pressure?

What to watch out for : The impeccable manner in which he exploits his opponents weaknesses and of course!...the searing backhand smash.
