Badminton Asia Championships: Two-time Olympics medallist P. V. Sindhu and H.S. Prannoy overcame a tough first-round challenge, while Lakshya Sen and Kidambi Srikanth faced an unexpected exit as Indian fortunes varied on the first day of the Badminton Asia Championships on Wednesday.
Sindhu was tested by Malaysia’s Wong Ling Ching before securing a hard-fought victory in three games. After dropping the opener 15-21, the Indian shuttler regrouped, taking control of the second game 21-11.
The deciding game turned into a tense battle with frequent momentum shifts. With the scores locked at 19-19, Sindhu relied on her experience to clinch the final two points and seal the match in one hour and seven minutes. The Indian ace will next play Wang Zhi Yi of China in the second round.
