Kerala lad H. Sunil Kumar Prannoy upset top-seed Korean in the semis and guaranteed another medal for India ... Impressive comeback win over No. 1 seed Korean by Prannoy ... He looks promising so we should keep eye on his performance.

Good to see another straight sets victory for Yuki to move into semis ... Next he is facing 2nd seed Damir Dzumhur for place in the medal round.

In Archery we had mixed day ... In boys event our 5th seed Atanu Das lost in close match against Finland player, in shoot-off ... In girls event ou 5th seed Seema Verma scored comfortable win against her opponent to move into round of 16.

Consecutive 3rd loss for our basketball boys team ... But may be we r defending well as no team scored more than 33 pts against us, in fact they all scored same 33 pts.
