The 21-year-old Mumbai-based Chotrani, who trains under former World No.1 David Palmer of Australia at Khar Gymkhana, packed too many guns for Baitha, who couldn’t adjust to the fast pace set by Chotrani, hosted by NSCI at their glass-backed squash courts, here.

Chotrani also found his touch early, hitting the angles accurately to have Baitha scrambling for returns.

The first game was close in the initial stages as Baitha, who trains at the JSW Academy, Vashind and is ranked No.6 in the country, managed to keep pace, but once Chotrani broke free, it was all one-way traffic in the 11-8, 11-6, 11-2 victory.
