Excellent start for our players ... From start in this match Anand Pawar was falling behind and needed to catch his Danish opponent ... After losing first game Anand was down 13-16 in second game but from 15-17 he won 6 points on a row to make it 1 game all ... In decider Anand was up 2-0 before Vittinghus won next 10 points from 3-all to take 3-13 lead ... Instead of giving up Anand kept fighting to make it 14-15 but Vittinghus managed to keep lead ... At last Anand caught with him at 19-all from 17-19 ... Vittinghus saved a match point on 20-19 then Anand saved match point at 20-21 and then Anand converted 2nd match point to complete amazing comeback victory in 57 mins.

In other match Kashyap continued with his good form from CWG 2010 ... He won his match in straight games ... In second game he saved a game point before winning match in 38 mins.

Ajay retired from his match after playing a single point ... Hopefully no serious injury scare ... Chetan lost his match after winning first game against similar ranked player.
