Manika Batra cruised to the semifinals of the women's singles even as experienced paddler Mouma Das ended her campaign of the Commonwealth Games here today.
Manika, who played a stellar role in India's historic gold in the women's team event, notched up a win against Singapore's Yihan Zhou 4-1. The Delhi paddler hardly broke a sweat in the first three games, winning 11-5 11-6 11-2.
However, she was unable to finish the match as she stumbled in the fourth game 6-11 but sealed the match with a 11-9 win in the fifth game.
In the other women's singles, Mouma was ousted by Yu Mengyu of Singapore 13-15 7-11 5-11 11-7 5-11.
Madhurika Patkar also crashed out of the event as she lost to England's Kelly Sibley 9-11 8-11 11-2 3-11 11-8 6-11
