New Delhi: Joshna Chinappa and Dipika Pallikal lost in straight games, as the Indian challenge ended in the first round of the Hurghada Open squash tournament in Egypt. Joshna went down 7-9, 2-9, 4-9 to Lauren Siddall of England, while qualifier Dipika bowed out with a 1-9, 2-9, 4-9 defeat against third seed and local favourite Engy Kheirallah. Joshna, suffering from a bout of food poisoning, raced to a 7-2 lead in the first game before losing her way. The 56th-ranked Siddall, 11 rungs behind the Indian, needed nearly half-an-hour to tame the Indian. Dipika hardly stood any chance against the third-seeded Kheirallah. The Indian teen, who is currently based in Cairo training under Mohamed Hafiz, tried her best but her higher-ranked opponent, despite a subdued performance, took just 24 minutes to seal the issue.
