It is day nine at the 2022 Commonwealth Games and Indian table tennis stars will be playing their quarters and semis matches today. The action starts with women's doubles with Manika Batra and Diya Chitale taking on Oumehani Hosenally/Nandashwaree Jalim; there is a lot of singles action too.

India's table tennis ace Manika Batra was not as happy as she should have been after being recommended for the Arjuna Award for her coach missed out on the Dronacharya Award. Expressing her disappointment after not winning the Khel Ratna, she stated that she would again try next year.

After leading the Indian women’s team to a gold medal and winning a silver medal in the doubles event, Manika Batra became the first Indian woman to win a gold medal in table tennis singles. It was India’s third gold in table tennis after the men’s and women’s team won their respective team events.
