Wasn't surprised by this loss against this solid Indonesian team ... But good fighting performance by Kashyap against WR #5.

Now tomorrow our men has to win their match against Australia to qualify for quarter-finals.

Indian women scored expected dominating win over South African women ... So with this win they secured their place in quarter-final ... Tomorrow their match against Korea will decide group winner.
