India was too good for Pakistan today!
India was a huge threat for Pakistan with the likes of Sindhu and Srikanth in the team as it is but the Pakistani side couldn't show as much spunk but they did show a lot of heart and put in a lot of effort!
In any case, it's the start that India needed for badminton in the Mixed Team event where India are the defending champions.
