Sai in third round without losing much sweat as he receive walkover in the second round ... I was hoping close match between Prannoy and Ajay but Prannoy win his match in straight games ... Before that in the first round disappointing losses of Sourabh and Anand against lower ranked opponents.

Thulasi and Tanvi had tricky matches though they defeated their opponents in previous meeting ... Thulasi win the first game but fail to keep momentum and lose next two games against Michelle Li ... Tanvi score tight win over her Malaysian opponent ... In the third game she save one match point before winning it ... Next Tanvi having tough match against top-25 Chinese opponent.

Manu-Sumeeth fail to win against their Indonesian pair after missing the chances ... In the third game Manu-Sumeeth were leading 19-16 and then had two match points which they failed to convert ... Pranaav-Akshay score straight games win over local pair.
