Advani replied with a 26 break and then followed it with a perfect snooker. Conceding six points before removing it, Trump left the final red on in the center pocket for Advani.

Now only 26 behind Trump, the Indian produced one of the most spectacular clearances of the tournament, given that the green and pink were almost impossible to pot. Advani won that thrilling frame on the black ball to make the score 2-4. However, the recovery from the jaws of defeat did not change much in the seventh frame as Trump scored a fluent 69 break to end the fine tournament Advani has had. Advani had defeated Scotland's Graeme Dott 4-1 in the pre-quarters yesterday while on Wednesday, he had emerged victorious against former world champion, England's Shaun Murphy, 4-3 in the Round of 32. Scores: 73-20, 72-19, 69-3, 78 (78)-39 (39), 18-62 (38), 59(59)-66 (33), 98(69)-0.
