Anahat had lost to Georgina in their only previous meeting, but the Delhi girl reeled off four straight points to close out the opening game after trailing 8-10 and pretty much took control of the match.

“I’m extremely happy. I knew I wanted to do well in these events, get my ranking up and also put on a performance, and I’m glad I was able to do that this time,” she said.
