Ashmita does not go for a full-blown smash here, she deceives Okuhara varying the pace and places the shuttle at the front court. Okuhara fails to reach the shuttle.

For the next one, however, Ashmita plays a brilliant smash. Okuhara dives and the shuttle goes wide. Ashmita takes a four-point lead at 16-12.
