Bhavina created history by becoming the first Indian to enter the finals of the Paralympic Games table tennis competition.
After winning the clash, Bhavina said she never thought of reaching the finals of the Tokyo Paralympics and was only focused on giving her 100 percent in every match.
“If I keep on performing like this, I will definitely win the gold medal. I never thought of reaching the finals and only concentrated on giving my 100 percent and I did that only,” said Bhavina in a Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) video.
“And when you give your 100 percent you can win a medal. I am mentally ready for the finals and I just want to give my 100 percent,” she added.
