‘It Was A Day Of Missed Chances,’ Says India Coach Vishal Uppal After Loss To Indonesia In BJK Cup
Billie Jean King Cup Asia: India’s campaign at the Billie Jean King Cup Asia/Oceania Group I suffered a setback as they fell 0-2 to Indonesia at the DLTA Complex, a result that head coach Vishal Uppal described as a “day of missed chances” despite a competitive showing from the hosts.
India were pushed onto the back foot after a late fixture change saw them take on Indonesia instead of Mongolia, but Uppal insisted the switch did not disrupt the team’s plans.
“We got to know about it late last night. The referee came and told us that there's a change and that's okay. He spoke to all of us, the captains, and that's fine. We had to play Indonesia either today or tomorrow or whatever. So that didn't really make a big difference for us. Against Indonesia, it was a day of missed chances. I mean, we had a lot of chances in the first singles match of the day. And had we converted that and really gone up 1-0, the pressure would have been on Indonesia straight up,” he told the media after India’s loss.
