In what probably looks like his last Asian Games, India's Saurav Ghosal failed to capitalise on his chances and went down fighting to Malaysia's Ng Eain Yew 3-1 in the gold medal match in Hangzhou on Thursday.

In the final, the Commonwealth Games bronze medallist Ghosal won the first game 11-9 but then went down 9-11, 5-11, 7-11 in the next three games to lose the match and had to settle for silver medal once again.
