Satya comes to the rescue in the nick of time


KUALA LUMPUR: Forward and co-captain K. Satyaseelan turned hero when he converted a buzzer-beating jump shot to give Malaysia three precious points to edge Indonesia 74-71 in the men's South-east Asian (Seaba) basketball championship at Maba Stadium last night.  

Victory in the heart-stopping match played in front of a packed stadium virtually assured Malaysia a place with the basketball elites in the Asian Championship in Doha from Sept 8-16.
