Our men's team lose their second match of the group as they fail to overcome Hong Kong ... With this loss our chances of reaching to the quarters r over ... This time also Sai and Sourabh rose to occassion and defeated their top-20 opponents in upset win ... Other hand Ajay and Manu-Sumeeth r failing to raise their games in this tournament.

Another expected win against lowly ranked German girls for our team ... Still worrying struggling performance by our doubles pairs as big test against Japanese team is coming next.
