Soft Tennis, Men's Team Group C: India 0-2 Chinese Taipei! Lost the tie

Aryan Thakur lost the singles match 1-4 (1-4, 3-5, 3-5, 4-2, 1-4) to Chang Yu Sung, giving an unassailable lead to Chinese Taipei in the tie and confirming India's first defeat of the tournament.

Aryan had his moments in a couple of games, as two of the five games were decided on extra points, and he even snatched one game from Sung, but couldn't find the much-needed win.

Despite the defeat, India will still play the second doubles match between Om Yadav /Aniket Patel and Chen Po Yi/Chen Yu Hsun, as every match counts for group standings.
