Sameer Verma trails

Not the best of starts in the second game for Sameer Verma as he trails 2-5.

Sameer Verma loses Game 1!

He started off well did Sameer Verma, but Vitidsarn bounces back well to pocket it 21-18. The pressure now on the Indian to win the next game and force a decider.

5-straight points!

5 points played post the mid-game interval and Vitidsarn has pocketed all five to move into the lead now. Verma trails 11-12. How the tides change!

Sameer Verma LEADS!

This is some start for Sameer Verma as he goes into the mid-game break with an 11-7 lead. Vitdsarn is yet to get into his zone and the Indian has taken advantage.

Tight start!

A very tight start to the contest as Sameer Verma showcases he is not going to be pushed over. The Indian trails 4-5.

Sameer Verma v/s Vitidsarn

Sameer Verma strides out in court number 4 now. He is up against Kunlavut Vitidsarn. Going to be a very tough ask this for Sameer, but again he ousted Ginting from the competition yesterday.

Should be a fun contest this.

SRIKANTH LOSES!

Kidambi Srikanth goes down 21-19, 12-21, 19-21 against Rasmus Gemke after being a game up. This was a marathon contest lasting 1 hours and 15 minutes, and the Indian would go back with a lot of thinking to do.

Pressure on Srikanth!

Srikanth saves one match point, but the pressure is firmly on him at 18-20.

Srikanth exhausts his challenges

Gemke's shot called in, Srikanth challenges and loses. That's six-straight points now for Gemke as Srikanth trails 14-17. Time running out for the Indian here.
