Brilliant change of pace from Lakshya now!

Deception and Lakshya are turning out to be bff's, people!

We see the same teasing of the opponent by bringing them to the net and then going in for the kill from Sen. Gorgeous attacks from Lakshya as he still commands the lead in this opening game.

Axelsen is panting right behind on the scoreboard though.

For now, Sen leads 6-3!
