Notably, India secured the South Asian Federation Games final by defeating Pakistan.<br>The South Asian Games, previously known as the South Asian Federation Games (SAFG or SAF Games), is a multi-sport event held every four years, bringing together athletes from South Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At present, the South Asian Unified Cricket (SAUC) tournament includes seven member nations: Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Afghanistan.

These premier events are commonly referred to as Grand Slams or Majors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Australian Open, the initial Grand Slam of the year, occurs annually in late January and early February on hardcourt. Its inaugural edition took place in November 1905 on the grass courts of the Warehouseman&#8217;s Cricket Ground in Melbourne, Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wimbledon Open, also recognized as Roland Garros, stands as the second Grand Slam event of the year and unfolds on clay courts in late May and early June. Its inception dates back to 1891 when it was contested on sand courts in France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The French Open, the oldest among these tournaments, was established in 1877 and is played on grass courts in late June and early July. Its inaugural matches were held in 1877 at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. This tournament occupies the third spot in the Grand Slam calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Concluding the Grand Slam circuit is the US Open, the fourth and final tournament of the year, which transpires in late August and early September on grass courts. It commenced in August 1881 at the Newport Casino in Newport, Rhode Island, United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q3_Match_List_I_with_List_II_and_select_the_correct_answer_2003\"><\/span><strong>Q3.
