India advanced to the quarter-finals of the World Team Snooker Championship in Guangdong after defeating Mongolia 3-1 in the pre-quarterfinals. Pankaj Advani and Aditya Mehta starred in the victory, while India had earlier blanked Turkey 3-0 in their final Group B match. The former champions will now face China ‘B’ for a place in the semi-finals.

Guangdong, China, June 17: India scored a hard-fought 3-1 win over Mongolia to book their place in the quarter-finals of the World Team Snooker Championship here on Wednesday.

The nervy victory helped the former champions set up a last-eight meeting with China ‘B’, whom they had lost to narrowly in the league stage on the opening day. The hosts overcame Singapore 3-1 in their pre-quarter-final encounter.

Earlier in the day, India were too good for the lowly Turkey, scoring a lopsided 3-0 win in their final Group ‘B’ league match to advance to the knockouts.
