Bowling girls fall short in world title defence 


PETALING JAYA: The national girls’ bowling team could only muster up bronze in their failed title defence at the World Youth Championships in Megalanes Sarawak yesterday after losing to archrivals Singapore.

The quartet, comprising rising talents Adelia Nur Izwan Syazalee, Adania Mohd Redzwan, Qurratu’Ain Izdihar Pozi and Intan Nor Edryana Nor Azliman, had entered the tournament as defending champions following their victory in South Korea in 2024 but they crashed out in the semi-finals this time.
