In fact he jumped so high that he finished on the top of the table. Having exhausted the other opportunity to win the medal, it was his last chance to show his prowess and Amal did not disappoint the Indian fans. In a high intensity trip, he ended up with silver medal in doubles pairing with partner Sharath Kamal.
