Summary
Dhavaskar and Naik Close Out Sawant and Shetgaonkar in Two Tight Games
At 14-14 in the opening game, Karan Dhavaskar and Soham Naik needed only two rallies to turn a level contest into a 16-14 lead. That late burst set the pattern for their 2-0 Round of 16 win over Kewal Sawant and Manav Shetgaonkar on Court 3, with the seeded eighth pair taking the second game 15-9.
The first game changed hands repeatedly. Sawant and Shetgaonkar led 4-3, but Dhavaskar and Naik moved ahead 8-6 and reached the interval at 8-6. The unseeded pair recovered to 14-14, winning three straight rallies from 11-14, before the eighth seeds stopped the comeback with the final two points.
The second game was less forgiving. Dhavaskar and Naik opened 2-0, extended the advantage to 8-2 and led 13-7. Sawant and Shetgaonkar answered with three consecutive rallies to reach 13-9, but the seeded pair finished immediately with two more points.
The numbers underline how early control mattered: Dhavaskar and Naik won six of the 10 game-opening rallies, compared with four for their opponents, and never surrendered a lead. Sawant and Shetgaonkar’s best streak was three rallies; Dhavaskar and Naik’s was four. The match lasted 24 minutes, beginning at 3:57 pm and ending at 4:20 pm, as the eighth seeds advanced.
