But more than the money, the  winners earned some vital points which should help them go up the ladder  in future meets.<\/p>\n<p>As was to be expected, the boys\u2019 singles final  had all the ingredients and befittingly the better player from PSPB-A  won at the end of the day. But it must be said to the credit of Boro  who, after being down 2-1 at one stage and again 3-2, showed grit to  stage a remarkable comeback and win the last three games.<\/p>\n<p>Employing  great attacking shots and using both back and forehand smashes to  greater effect, West Bengal\u2019s Ghosh began in great style. With his No. 1  seed and taller PSPB-A opponent losing rhythm, Ghosh went about his way  smashing everything that was within and without his reach to move  ahead. In between, Boro managed to take game of Ghosh to stay afloat.  But in the fourth game, it was Ghosh who after taking a sizeable lead  shut Boro out with a forehand close-to-the-table smash to go 3-1 up.<\/p>\n<p>It  was at this juncture that Boro regrouped himself well and seeing his  opponent tiring, thanks to hot and humid conditions inside the hall,  went into cruise mode to take the next two games to level the score at  3-3. Once pushed to the brink, it was up to Boro to show his true  attacking colours and he succeeded in spite of making a couple of  unforced errors in the decider. Nevertheless, Ghosh too was unable to  withstand the onslaught and wilted under pressure, often unable to put  the ball beyond the net. That gave several crucial points to Boro who  simply smashed his way to the title.<\/p>\n<p>Boro, understandably, was  relieved after winning against Ghosh. \u201cI had at the back of my mind the  loss we suffered in the team championships because of Anirban. I had to  set the record straight and I am happy I did exactly that,\u201d said Boro  after winning the title.<\/p>\n<p>As for the girls final, it was a  foregone conclusion that the No. 7 seed Saha would win. But it was a  question of whether or not Moumita will be able to take a game or two  off her friend at home and a bitterest rival on court. Das did manage to  take a game off her rival but before she could gain any ascendancy,  Saha stuck to her task and took the crown.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Results:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/><\/strong>Sub-junior Boys: Final:Birdie Boro (PSPB-A ) bt Anirban  Ghosh (WB) 7-11, 7-11,11-6, 9-11, 11-5. 12-10,11-5; Semi-finals: Birdie  Boro (PSPB-A) bt Arjun Ghosh (WB) 11-7, 7-11, 12-10, 7011, 10-12, 11-8,  11-2; Anirban Gosh (WB) bt Ayush Tayal (Har) 11-9, 11-8, 9-11, 11-4,  11-7; Quarterfinals: Anirban Ghosh (WB) bt Lalrin Puia (PSPB-A) 11-2,  11-8, 12-14, 11-6, 11-9; Arjun Ghosh (WB) bt Lalhun Lua (PSPB-A) 11-3,  11-8, 11-7, 11-5; Ayush Tayal (Har) bt Manav Thakkar\u00a0 (Guj) 11-7, 11-4,  7-11, 11-9, 11-1; Birdie Boro (PSPB-A) bt Ananth D (TN) 11-9, 5-11,  11-8, 11-7, 9-11, 11-7. <\/p>\n<p>Sub-junior Girls: Final: Sumana Saha  (WB) bt.
