Game 3: Lakshya trails

Lakshya goes for the kill again but his placement is wrong. He goes wide and concedes a 5-4 lead to Shi. 

Shi hits a flat smash from the back corner and Lakshya fails to clear it. He simply goes out. Shi takes a 6-4 lead.

Shi wins the next point too by changing the direction of the shuttle. Too much deception from the Chinese player. He leads 7-4.
