failed to end their 33-year wait for glory after losing 2-1 to giants Thailand in the team final of the 2024 Sepak Takraw World Cup at the Titiwangsa Stadium here today.

Malaysia last won a team title at the 1991 Manila SEA Games and have had to take a backseat as Thailand flexed their muscles to dominate the event since then. Malaysia’s second regu of Amirul Zazwan Amir, Muhammad Haziq Hairul Nizam dan Muhammad Noraizat Mohd Nordin failed to keep their part of the bargain as they went down 8-15, 5-15 to Thailand’s Wichan Temkort, Kritsanapong Nontakote and Pichet Pansan.

Undaunted, Thailand switched to a higher gear with the presence of tekong Sittipong Khamchan and stormed to a 15-12, 15-12 win to lift the World Cup trophy.
