City shuttler Chirag Shetty’s family celebrate after India stun Indonesia 3-0 to win the Thomas Cup Finals at aunt Shailaja’s residence in Dadar
Mumbai-based Chirag Shetty, one half of India’s victorious Thomas Cup-winning doubles pair (Satwiksairaj Rankireddy was his partner), didn’t allow a back spasm to come in the way of glory on Sunday. And who prouder than his father Chandrashekhar. Shetty and his teammates stunned 14-time champions Indonesia 3-0 in the final at Bangkok on Sunday.
“Playing for the country is much above individual pain and what he did today is just incredible,” Chandrashekhar told mid-day on Sunday. Shetty Sr underlined that the credit for Chirag and Satwik’s recent success goes to Mathias Boe, the London 2012 Olympics doubles silver medallist, under whom the duo trained at the Goregaon Sports Club (GSC) last month for more than a week.
