Indian cuesports legend Pankaj Advani claimed his third consecutive title at the prestigious CCI Snooker Classic 2025, overcoming the in-form Ishpreet Singh with a hard-fought 8-6 victory at the Cricket Club of India.
Trailing 1-4 in the first session of this best-of-15 clash, the 27-time world champion found himself under immense pressure for the first time in the tournament. Ishpreet, displaying fearless and aggressive potting, dominated the opening frames with impressive breaks of 101, 68, and 60, keeping Advani on the back foot.
As the match progressed, Advani fought back, narrowing the deficit to 4-6. However, it was after the second mid-session interval that the game took a dramatic turn. With remarkable resilience and tactical brilliance, Advani clawed his way back, leveling the scores at 6-6 and shifting the momentum in his favor.
What followed was a masterclass in strategy and composure. Advani disrupted Ishpreet’s rhythm with calculated safety play and capitalized on every small opportunity. After nearly eight hours of grueling play, both players showed signs of fatigue, but Advani’s experience shone through. Seizing control at 7-6, he maintained his dominance to clinch the final frame and secure the 8-6 victory, adding yet another glorious chapter to his storied career.
With this triumph, Advani took home a ₹3.5 lakh prize, while runner-up Ishpreet Singh earned ₹1.75 lakh for his stellar performance.
Now, with his third consecutive CCI Snooker Classic title in the bag, Advani sets his sights on the Billiards Classic, scheduled for late April.
A roller-coaster finale, a memorable event—Sportal signs off with unforgettable moments, from Ishpreet’s historic 147 to Advani’s stunning comeback.
And you know what’s to be done! Hang on and #CueInCCI.
