Badminton World Tour Finals Day 3 LIVE - PV Sindhu in action - Scores, Updates, Results, Blog
Delicate net play from Lee Zii Jia here!
Kidambi Srikanth had a healthy lead in the second game but Lee Zii Jia is impatient to cover it up and his level of badminton is insane, it is 9 ALL!
Into Game 2, Kidambi Srikanth takes an early charge!
Srikanth looks to mend his ways and attacks more readily in Game 2 to take the lead at 4-2!
And once again, it is a mirror score of the first game of Hylo Open - 21-19!
Kidambi Srikanth once again comes dangerously close to getting the opening game but fails to capitalize on the bigger points and ends up losing the first game, 21-19, exactly like he did at the Hylo Open semis, three weeks back, against the Malaysian!
Things look super tight here!
Just like Hylo Open, even this match has grown tight with both players stepping up their game. 19 ALL, let's go, Srikanth!
Deceptive play from Kidambi Srikanth, it is 15 ALL!
Srikanth is forcing out errors from the Malaysian and engaging in net play - it is all locked in at 15 ALL!
Srikanth attacks the backhand of Zii Jia now!
Although Lee is the one who looks better placed in this match so far, Srikanth has killer smashes to answer with too!
The Malaysian has the lead at 12-10.
