Abhinav Tejan seals spot in the finals of Esports World Championship

Tekken7 star Abhinav Tejan produced a power-packed performance at the Regional Qualifiers to enter the Finals of 12th Esports World Championship.

A Delhi resident Tejan and former world number 35 was up against Sri Lanka and Nepal in the South Asia region of Regional Qualifiers. Living up to the pre-tournament favorite tag, Tejan started off well in the best-of-three group matches against Sri Lanka and Nepal before taking on Sri Lanka in the finals of the Regional Qualifiers which are being conducted online owing to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic.

The 28-year-old once again proved his supremacy as he comfortably clinched victory against the island nation in the best-of-seven summit clash to book a berth in the World Championship Finals which are scheduled to take place offline in Eilat, Israel.
