Sindhu 16-21, 21-16, 11-9 Yamaguchi
That's some composure shown by Sindhu, she has a slender advantage at the breather but still has to be wary about Yamaguchi.

Sindhu 16-21, 21-16, 6-6 Yamaguchi
It's smash after smash, lob after lob, drop shots after drop shots. It's intense out there and both the players are feeling it.

Sindhu 16-21, 21-16, 3-3 Yamaguchi
And Sindhu is fighting back! A couple of good points to level it at 2-2 and then again another brilliant cross-court slice to make it 3-3!

Sindhu 16-21, 16-10 Yamaguchi
