DELHI: The Indian women's doubles pair of Tanisha Crasto and Ashwini Ponnappa secured their second Super 100 title at the Guwahati Masters Super 100 tournament on Sunday.

Celebrating the victory in a competitive tournament

Ashwini Ponnappa, 34, and 20-year-old Tanisha Crasto began their partnership in January of the current year and have swiftly achieved success.

Notably, they were part of India's Asian Games squad in Hangzhou, China. Ashwini, a seasoned doubles player, had previously found success with Jwala Gutta, earning medals at the World Championships and Commonwealth Games.

After parting ways with Sikki Reddy in 2022, Ashwini formed a successful partnership with Tanisha. Tanisha, initially excelling in mixed doubles, later focused on women's doubles and joined forces with Ashwini after struggling to find a consistent partner.

The duo's collaboration has proven fruitful, culminating in notable victories and adding a dynamic dimension to India's representation in women's doubles badminton
