Indian spikers stun Tunisia New Delhi, July 4 The Tunisian national team was shaken out of their wits when the Indian spikers snatched the first set after a see-saw battle, with setter Kasi Viswanatha Raju brilliantly controlling the game from the middle of the court. Raju’s neat setting enabled India to bounce back after they lost the second and third sets, and win the match. According to information available in Delhi, Raghuveer Singh proved his worth in attack and block, when he was fielded as a substitute. M. S Rajesh shone in attack and defence in the crucial fourth and fifth sets to pave way for India’s win. Tom Joseph and Amir Singh played consistently well throughout the match. Joby Joseph, who played as a libero, acquitted himself creditably. The confident Indian team eventually gave a thrilling finish to get even with the fancied Tunisian team. |
