Sharan ended a 4-match losing streak last week when he got to the QFs, losing to Bhambri. Edward Seator beat him in 3 sets in Frinton last year after Josh had thashed him 2 & 0 in Felixstowe a week earlier. Earlier results v Brits were wins against Allinson and Lee Childs and a loss to Evo, none of which really points to Maniel having much of a chance, but I hope he proves me wrong!
