Iran gained its third consecutive win in the event to continue its lead over Group E of the event. The qualifiers are being held in Qatar’s Doha.<\/p>\n

Behnam Yakhchali was named the match’s best scorer with 27 points.<\/p>\n

The Iranian team will take on Syria on November 30.<\/p>\n

The team defeated Qatar and Syria in Tehran in the first window of the event in late February.<\/p>\n
