Indonesia Open 2021 LIVE - Satwik-Chirag exit - Updates, Results, Scores, Blog

Beautiful!

Beautiful net play from Sindhu, before she lands one perfectly on the backline. 10-6 lead

Intanon hitting back

Three straight points for the Thai and she has managed to reduce the deficit to two points at 6-8.

Sindhu in control

PV Sindhu is moving well on court. Some wonderful shots as she opens up a healthy 7-3 lead.

Decent start

Intanon wins the first point, but Sindhu hits back with three. 3-1 lead for the Indian.

There she is!

PV Sindhu has arrived on court number 1 of the Bali International Convention centre. So has Intanon. 

Sindhu has won the toss and chooses the side. The usual warmup routine now. 

Sindhu v Intanon Head to Head

Sindhu and Intanon have faced off ten times in their career. So, a familiar matchup for both with Intanon having a 6-4 edge. The World Rankings are pretty similar as well, with Sindhu ranked 7th and Intanon 8th.

PV Sindhu in action soon!

PV Sindhu should stride out in about 20 minutes from now. There's an intense mixed doubles semifinals going on at the moment, following which we will have the reigning World Champion in action!

Tricky Opponents

While PV Sindhu will be up against Intanon, Satwik-Chirag will have to go past the Minions. Tokyo Olympics flashback, anyone?

Goood Morninggg!

It is a lazy Saturday morning and we have PV Sindhu and the men's doubles duo of Satwiksairaj Rankidreddy and Chirag Shetty in the semifinal of the Indonesia Open 2021.

While Satwik-Chirag have a World Tour Finals (WTF) spot at stake, Sindhu has not reached the final of any event since March earlier this year. There is a lot to play for all of them.

How will they fare?
