It was a long time plan between me and Deepak to play against each other in a singles battle of Tennis. And finally we decided to play on 8th Aug, Deepak fixed up the slot with the League Club for 6.30 pm, as soon as we reached by time at League Club, we paid 150 rs each (300 rs). They charge 150 rs for flood lits and 100 rs for the day time. The court was busy with the regular members, so we were asked to wait till 8 pm.
Finally, we started by 8 pm, it was a tough 1st set, took around 45 mins to complete the set, i captured the 1st set by 7-5. We had a break after that for 2 mins (water break). I
strongly started the 2nd set with a lead of 3-1, then Deepak made 2-3 with his service game, I was 3-2 ahead with a break in hand. But we stopped the game as they called TIME. I was declared as the winner. But Deepak played well!!! 
Overall we enjoyed an exhaustive match in spite of paying 300 rs.

Thnks Joe.. That was a perfect narration.
One addition, in the 2nd set when I was serving (down) 1-3 and was under pressure last game serving
0-40 - fought back to make it 2-3 (Joe to server). It was time..
Nice match and both of us raised our game level and it was a really hard fought win by Joe. Well played mate !!!
