Chennai: An inspired Subhankar Dey wore down Tanongsak Saensomboonsuk 15-9, 15-14 to help Awadhe Warriors pull off a come-from-behind 4-3 win over North Eastern Warriors in a Premier Badminton League (PBL) match here on Thursday.

The 26-year old Dey got the better of the Thai, a former top-10 player in a match which saw several long rallies. The Indian unleashed some powerful smashes to counter the retrieving skills of his left-handed rival. The match was tied at 3-all after K S Hyun and S B Cheal had rallied from a game down to beat K P Garaga and L Y Dae 8-15, 15-14, 15-12 in a close encounter.
