[SF] (3) Karan RASTOGI (IND)/ Rohan GAJJAR (IND) vs Yu CHANG (CHN)/ Xin GAO (CHN)
Good hard fought win for Karan against local player ... He need these wins to give him confidence on his own game ... Gajjar also scored tight win against local wild-card player ... In the second round both playing against players in-form, who r currently around their best singles ranking ... So good test for our players.
In doubles Karan and Rohan moved into the semis after scoring win against Germans in STB ... They r only non-Chinese pair remaining in the draw.
Vijayant Malik withdrew from this futures ... Hopefully nothing serious injury worry and only precautionary step before 3 weeks of Indian futures series.
