In a gripping showdown at the Asian Para-Badminton Championship, China`s Lin Naili battled valiantly in the Short Stature (SH6) men`s singles final but ultimately succumbed to Thailand`s Natthapong Meechai. The match unfolded with a dramatic ebb and flow, as Lin initially struggled, losing the first game 15-21. However, he rallied back to claim the second game 21-17, igniting hopes of a comeback. Yet, Meechai`s relentless determination shone through, and he sealed the gold medal with a decisive 21-12 victory in the final game, leaving Lin with a hard-earned silver.

The championship, held in Thailand, was a showcase of para-badminton excellence, with India making headlines by securing a record-breaking 27 medals, including four golds. The men’s doubles SL3-SL4 final was a thrilling spectacle, where Indian duo Sukant Kadam and Nitesh Kumar triumphed over compatriots Jagadesh Dilli and Naveen Sivakumar in a nail-biting three-set match, further solidifying India`s dominance in the sport.
