Manika Batra made history by becoming the first Indian table tennis player to reach the singles pre-quarterfinals at the Olympic Games with a fluent 4-0 win over world number 18 and home favourite Prithika Pavade here on Monday.
The 29-year-old Manika dominated from start to finish for a 11-9 11-6 11-9 11-7 win over Prithika, who has Indian roots.
It turned out to be one of the most memorable matches for an Indian table tennis player in Olympics history. Manika had reached the round of 32 at the Tokyo Olympics and she bettered that performance on Monday.

Manu Bhaker was on course to make more Olympic history as she put herself in contention for an unprecedented second medal on a day when the men's hockey team managed an underwhelming draw, a fourth-place finish broke Indian hearts at the shooting range and the pampered archers simply capitulated.
For a second day running, Bhaker was the star of the India show as she combined with Sarabjot Singh to make the bronze medal match of the 10m air pistol mixed team competition at Chateauroux's shooting range.
The two will be up against the Korean combination of Oh Ye Jin and Lee Wonho, who shot 579, in the bronze-medal match. Should they triumph, Bhaker will become the first Indian to win more than one medal in a single edition of the Games.

The men's triathlon event at the Paris Olympics will not go ahead as planned on Tuesday, July 30 as pollution levels in River Seine remain too high, World Triathlon said in a statement, dealing a blow to organisers and leaving athletes facing more uncertainty.
The race was postponed to Wednesday at 10:45 am (0845 GMT), immediately after the women's event, which is scheduled for 8 am that day.
Organisers previously said they were confident water quality would improve in time for the race after heavy rains last Friday and Saturday dirtied the river.
"Despite the improvement of water quality levels over the last hours, the readings at some points of the swim course are still above the acceptable limits," they said early on Tuesday.
"Paris 2024 and World Triathlon reiterate that their priority is the health of the athletes."
Should levels of bacteria remain too high by Wednesday morning both the men's and women's races are likely to be postponed to Friday, the contingency day reserved for the events.
If by Friday the water quality is still not good enough the swim leg will be scrapped and athletes will compete in a duathlon instead.
For the mixed triathlon relay event on August 5, the contingency day is August 6.
Paris authorities have promised to make the Seine swimmable as a key legacy of the Games, and spent 1.4 billion euros ($1.51 billion) on wastewater infrastructure to contain sewage and minimise spillage into the waterway.
Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo took a dip in the river herself earlier this month, in a bid to convince doubters.
The gamble that the river would be clean enough on the day of the triathlon was never guaranteed to pay off, especially as water quality varies widely day-to-day.
Rain significantly increases concentrations of infection-causing bacteria like E. coli and enterococci.
Seth Rider, one of 55 triathletes entered in the men's race, has told reporters he took unconventional measures to prepare for exposure to bacteria.
"We know that there's going to be some E. coli exposure, so I just try to increase my E. coli threshold by exposing myself to a bit of E. coli in your day-to-day life", the US athlete said in a press conference on Saturday.
The Olympic triathlon course was conceived to maximise the wow factor, with the river swim a key element.
After diving into the Seine from a pontoon next to the Alexandre III bridge, athletes are set to race past the Musée d'Orsay and Grand Palais during the bike and run elements before ending back where they started.
Crossing the finish line on the bridge, competitors will be framed by stone columns topped with gilt-bronze statues of Pegasus, with the golden dome of the early 18th century Invalides monument as a backdrop.

Spain's SailGP winning duo of Diego Botin and Florian Trittel seized the initiative in the skiff on Tuesday, springing above Ireland and New Zealand to top the Olympic leaderboard.
Isaac McHardie and William McKenzie, dubbed the 'McKiwis', could not match their lighter wind consistency of previous days, while the Spanish savoured a stiffer breeze and bigger waves.
Britain's James Peters and Fynn Sterritt also got into their Mediterranean mode, lifting their overall position to fourth, one place behind the Kiwis.
The British crew stole the lead from Spain on the line in the last race of the day after a scintillating duel in the final leg, gybing away to keep their spinnaker full in fading wind.
Ireland's Robert Dickson and Sean Waddilove, meanwhile, sailed solidly enough to maintain second overall.
In the women's skiff, Dutch duo Odile van Aanholt and Annette Duetz relished the wind to regain the lead from France. (Reuters)
Simone Biles made her long-anticipated return to the women's gymnastics team final at the Paris Olympics on Tuesday, where she is in pursuit of a fifth Olympic gold medal for the United States, and dispel memories of her abrupt withdrawal from the event at the Tokyo Games.
A poised Biles began on the vault and soared high through the air as she performed the Cheng to earn 14.900 points, the highest score on the apparatus during the first rotation.
Biles, the most decorated gymnast of all-time, made a dazzling comeback on the Olympic stage on Sunday when she propelled the US to the top of the team qualifying standings. The American also topped the all-around qualifying standings as well as for the floor exercise and vault apparatus finals.
At the start of Tuesday's meet, Biles appeared so focused on competing that she emerged from the tunnel and headed straight towards the team's bench instead of pausing for the team's introduction by venue announcers. After being stopped in her tracks by her teammates, a sheepish Biles took a few steps back, and beamed a big smile as the crowd let out a deafening roar when her name was announced.
Biles is set to compete on all four apparatus in the team final alongside teammate Jordan Chiles, who recorded a solid 14.400 points on the vault. (Reuters)
Tiana Echegaray was eliminated from the Paris Olympics following a loss to Turkey's Hatice Akbas on Tuesday, but the Australian said she is still proud of herself for making it this far in such a short space of time.

Italy's world number 5 Jasmine Paolini got sidetracked by unseeded Slovakian Anna Karolina Schmiedlova in a tight Paris Olympics tennis singles match, 7-5 3-6 7-5, becoming the second major upset on Tuesday after American Coco Gauff.

Spain's dream team of Rafa Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz reached the quarter-finals of the Olympic men's tennis doubles with a 6-4 6-7 10-2 defeat of Dutchmen Tallon Griekspoor and Wesley Koolhof at Roland Garros on Tuesday.
A day after 14-time French Open champion Nadal was heavily beaten by Novak Djokovic in the singles, the 38-year-old bounced back with a commanding display alongside his compatriot.
The Spanish duo, dubbed Nadalcraz, delighted a packed and vociferous crowd on a sweltering Court Suzanne Lenglen arena as they combined their formidable firepower to keep their gold medal dream on course.
Alcaraz, 21, pummelled a forehand winner to get the crucial break of serve in the first set with Nadal roaring his approval.
Koolhof, a former doubles world number one, and Griekspoor provided stiff resistance in the second set before dominating a second-set tiebreak, winning it 7-2.
But a Nadalcaraz caught fire in the deciding third set, fist-pumping and roaring after a succession of electrifying winners as they blazed to victory. (Reuters)
