Delhi's Shreya Pasricha today clinched the doubles crown at AITA Tennis Championship Series 2010 being played at the BTA Complex Courts at Salt Lake here. After winning the Girls Doubles (U-18) title, she followed it up with the Girls Singles title beating local girl Arundhuti Basu 7-5, 7-5. Arundhuti had a set point in the first set while leading at 5-4 but failed to return a low backhand and this proved costly for her the match.

In the Boys Singles (U-14) top seed Richie Agarwal squandered a 4-0 lead in the second set and lost the title to Orissas Adhwithiya Pattnaik, the second seed, 7-6(7-2), 6-4.

Eight seeded Priyam Periwal was another disapointment for the home side. She lost the Girls Singles(U-14) to fourth seeded Kumaran Sendil Deepika from Tamil Nadu 3-6, 2-6.

The Boys Singles Under-18 crown was notched up by Chattisgarh boy Tushar Mandlekar. He outplayed Tamil Nadus Niranjan R Ram 6-4, 1-6, 6-2.
