Florian Nüßle from Austria ousted Indian player S. Shrikrishna by winning the deciding frame in Best of 7 format Pre-quarter finals match of 2017 IBSF World Unde-18 Snooker Championship.
Florian gave an excellent start and capitalized first frame with a huge margin (93-04), but after that Shrikrishna won back-to-back two frames and tried mounting pressure on Florian. However, Florian replied with next frame win to come at par (2-2).
Shrikrishna once again stood strong and took a lead of 66 points in fifth frame but Florian crafted an outstanding counter clearance break of 69 points to turn the situation in his favour.
The match wasn’t over ye and Shrikrishna won the sixth frame by a very small margin to set decider. Even in deciding frame, he initiated with a break but after accumulating 28 points, he gave a chance to Florian, which actually cost him the match, as Florian took the charge and potted each ball very cautiously to knockout Shrikrishna.
