Great stuff as always from this pair but they have to say their bye's at the quarter-final stages of the French Open 2021 now.
Come back stronger!
Very, very sad turn of events as Satwik-Chirag fail to capitalise in the key points and the Malaysian duo move on to the semi finals in an hour long fight, 21-18, 21-18, 21-17.
Satwik-Chirag NEEDS to turn this around!
It's a really tense battle here as Satwik-Chirag try to keep their cool and take the lead at 15-13!
What a thriller this is turning out to be! Satwik-Chirag are playing their third straight full-length match at the French Open 2021 and each has been this difficult on the heart!
Let's keep the momentum going!!
It is 10 ALL on the board in the Satwik-Chirag match with the decider being extremely hard on the nerves!
The services are being exchanged rapidly!
