Up next: Satwik-Chirag v/s Lee Yang-Wang Chi Lin

The top Indians men's doubles duo of Satwik and Chirag take on Lee and Wang - the pair they beat at Tokyo Olympics.

Can they help India equalise the tie?

What a match this was, Lakshya Sen comes so close to winning it too but alas

Lakshya Sen plays dangerously well here and could have sealed the affair in straight games as well but with not-so-ideal playing conditions and sheer nerves, Lakshya Sen loses in 1 hour 20 mins, 21-19, 13-21, 21-17.

Great stuff from both players. 

Chinese Taipei take the lead 1-0 in this tie.
