Play all audios:
India swept the table tennis team events of the Commonwealth Games, as the men matched the women to seal a memorable gold with an emphatic 3-0 win over Nigeria in the final on Monday, 9
April. After Manika Batra fired India to a historic triumph over Singapore on Sunday, the Sharath Kamal-led men's outfit too beat the team from the city state 3-2 in the semifinals,
played earlier on Monday. With individual and doubles medals still on offer, India's performance is already a marked improvement from its disappointing showing in Glasgow four years ago
when it managed just a silver in men's doubles. It was none other than Nigeria who beat India for bronze in the previous edition. Kamal, arguably India's finest-ever player, was
also part of the men's team which won the gold in the 2006 Melbourne edition. India's unprecedented effort at the Gold Coast Games is also a fair reflection of the sport's
fast improving standard in the country.
