Explore Business Standard

India failed to defend the men's team title at the IBSF Snooker World Cup, losing 1-3 to arch-rivals Pakistan in the summit clash here Tuesday.
India started badly as Pakistan won the first two frames and looked on course for a whitewash in the final before the pair of Pankaj Advani and Laxman Rawat made a comeback to win the third frame and stay in the contest.
But it was not to be as Pakistan won the fourth frame to deny India back-to-back crowns.
