Fresh from his 4-3 triumph over Indian Lalit Dahiya in group ‘A’ the other day, Hunain continued his winning spree when he got the better of Singapore’s Marcus Lim Wei Jie 87-17, 62-6, 84-16, 75-37. He is now drawn to meet reigning world champion Hossein Vafaei Ayouri of Iran in the last league match that will decide top two positions from the group.
