Doha, Nov 28

Ace Indian cueist Pankaj

Advani dished out another

superb performance to outclass

Iran's Amir Sarkhosh in the

finals and claim yet another title

at the IBSF World Snooker

Championship on Monday.

His deadly attacking game

coupled with phenomenally

tight safety play helped Advani

to secure his 18th World

Championship title with an 8-2

win over Amir at the Al-Arabi

Sports Club. The best-of-15

frame final witnessed Amir

pocketing the first frame rather

comfortably. The Iranian

looked strong and focused in

the second frame too,

progressing well and nearing

a 2-0 scoreline, but a missed

green pot gave a lifeline to

Pankaj as he seized the

opportunity with both hands

and drew parity. Pankaj never

looked back from there as he

Snooker Championship title

raced to a 5-2 lead. He,

however, survived a scare in

a close battle in the 4th frame.

A massive break of 134 by Amir

in the 6th did not faze the Indian

as he immediately widened the

lead to 5-2 before going into

the 1st session break.
