Manika Batra remains medal-less in Commonwealth Games 2022

Birmingham: Manika Batra, who won four medals in 2018 Commonwealth Games including gold in women's singles, ended her campaign in Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games without a medal as she and her partner crashed out of the women's doubles quarterfinals. Manika had already lost in the women's singles and mixed doubles, partnering with G. Sathiyan, and the women's doubles was her only hope in this edition of the Commonwealth Games.

Manika and Diya Chitale started the day by defeating Dumehani Hosenally and Jalim Nandeshwaree of Mauritius 3-0 (11-5, 11-5, 11-3) in a Round of 16 clash.

However, their joy was short-lived as they went down to Carey Charlotte and Anna Hursey of Wales 1-3 in the evening session. Manika and Diya lost 7-11, 8-11, 13-11, 10-12 to crash out.

In the women's singles, Manika went down to Jian Zeng of Singapore in the women's singles quarterfinals. It was a one-sided match 4-0.
