"Come on, Jeetna hai"
"Come on, come on, Jeetna hai," shouts someone from the Indian contingent ahead of the second game.
Thailand takes the first game 21-13
It looked like one-way traffic at the start of the game, but Tanisha and Praneeth did manage to stage a mini-comeback towards the end.
The Indians were certainly much better after the mid-game break. Can they spring a surprise in the second game?
Tanisha-Praneeth settling in
Sai Praneeth and Tanisha Crasto seem to be settling in. They have found a bit of momentum here. But, the Thai pair have 8 game points to their name.
India trying to fight back
Tanisha Crasto and Sai Praneeth stitch together a slew of points, hoping to stage a comeback. But, the Thai pair leads 18-9.
Second challenge WASTED
India waste their second challenge as well, and they will now have to do without any challenges in this match.
14-4
Nothing working for India as Dechapol and Sapsiree keep on extending their lead effortlessly.
Praneeth looking awkward
Sai Praneeth looks a bit awkward on the court, and quite frankly I don't remember him playing doubles before this.
11-2
Thailand go into the mid-game break with a massive 11-2 lead. Early signs this is not going to be pleasant for India.
Thailand race to 5-1 lead
And as expected, Thailand race to an early lead. 5-1 to be precise.
