Unseeded cueists shock top guns at under-21 snooker KARACHI: Junior champions of Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan bit the dust at the hands of unseeded cueists on the opening day of Jubilee Insurance seventh national junior under-21 snooker championship which commenced at Movenpick Arcade on Monday. Mohammad Saqib from Punjab created quite a stir by when he humbled Sindh junior champion and second seed Ali Zaman Khan straight 3-0 in group B match. Playing on table No 2 in the first session, Saqib, who is Punjab No 6, made a short work of his opponent 75-15, 63-23, 101-0 to consolidate his chances for making it to the knockout stage. Similarly, Sindh’s Gawish Khan sent Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s No 1 and third seed Ahsan Wakeel packing 50-16, 71-23, 85-40 in group C match on the adjacent table. In the third upset, Punjab’s Haris Tahir removed Balochistan No 1 and fifth seed Taimoor Aftab 68-18, 72-45, 61-34 in group E encounter. Meanwhile, Punjab champion and the top seed Abdul Raheem faced no difficulty while demolishing Sindh’s Junaid Ali 68-28, 60-29, 67-42 in group A opener. Earlier, the organisers were compelled to revise the draws following withdrawal of three cueists — Saifullah (Punjab), Ather Ali (Balochistan) and Umer Javed (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa) — at the eleventh hour. They were replaced by Adil Zafar (Punjab), Usman Khan and Mohammad Bilal (Sindh). The best of five frames league concludes on Wednesday. It will be followed by knockout pre quarters, quarters, semis and final. In the absence of defending champion and international Mohammad Majid Ali, who has become overage, the title is open to the 29 contestants.
