2025 Sudirman Cup HIGHLIGHTS: The Indian mixed team took on Indonesia in the opening tie of the second group stage action at the 2025 Sudirman Cup in Xiamen, China, on Tuesday.
The tie started with the mixed doubles match, where the team captains, Dhruv Kapila and Tanisha Crasto, were in action. Dhruv-Tanisha match was the only winning moment for India.
PV Sindhu and HS Prannoy followed in their respective singles matches. The tie ended with the next two matches - women’s and men’s doubles - turning in Indonesia’s favour.
As it happened:
India suffered their second-straight loss in the group stage, losing to Indonesia in four of five matches. Dhruv-Tanisha’s recovery from a set down to winning over Rehan-Gloria in the mixed doubles was the only silver lining for India in an otherwise disappointing show.
Hariharan-Ruban, too, played a close contest but failed to turn it in their favour against the Indonesian pair of Sohibul-Daniel.
The team will now be in action against England in the third group tie on May 1. India has already lost to Denmark in their opening tie.
