Indian Aces end runner-up again, lose IPTL final to Slammers

Indian Aces’ hopes of regaining the IPTL crown went up in smoke after failing to win a single match as defending champions Singapore Slammers retained the title with a dominating 30-14 win in summit clash on Sunday.

Former world number one, now retired, Carlos Moya was once in spectacular touch as the Spaniard beat Mark Philippoussis 6-4 to hand the initial advantage to his side.

Kirsten Flipken has turned around matches with her solid game but today she could not do the job and together with Sania Mirza, lost the women’s singles 3-6 to Kiki Bertens.

Sania came in as a substitute to Kirsten in the middle of the match.
