It is day 3 of the Indonesia Masters 2021 and we have six matches with Indian representation. The likes of PV Sindhu, Lakshya Sen, Kidambi Srikanth and others will be in action throughout the day for India in Bali.
Stay tuned for all the latest updates!
With Day 3 done and dusted, we have 3 Indians still very much in the lead to make it to the semis and inch closer to the title - PV Sindhu, Kidambi Srikanth and HS Prannoy! Great going, guys!
In another match, Indian women's doubles pair of Ashwini Ponnappa and N Sikki Reddy went down fighting against the third seeded duo of Jongkolphan Kititharakul/Rawinda Prajongjai in straight games, 21-18, 21-12
Taking inspiration from Kidambi Srikanth earlier who showed the door to Indonesia's Jonatan Christie, HS Prannoy also causes a major upset here as he hands Viktor Axelsen a tough loss! What a show, my god!!!
We are totally flipping - this is surreal! HS Prannoy ousts the Tokyo Olympics gold medallist and second seed, 14-21, 21-19, 21-16 after a tense battle of 1 hour 11 minutes!
Can HS Prannoy cause this massive upset and knock Axelsen out!? Our nerves are way too excited for this!
Prannoy commands a generous 18-15 lead now!
Great stuff from the Indian as he is making Axelsen work hard now, he takes the lead 16-14!
Just two points separate the two as Axelsen leads 14-12!
