RamK struggled with his first serve in this match and considering his return game is a liability then outcome of the match was already written on the wall ... Shapo took an early break to lead but while serving for the set RamK had break points which he failed to convert ... In the second set, at 6-5 RamK had a set point on Shapo's serve but again failed to convert ... He lost the tie-break cheaply ... With a single break of serve Shapo completed victory for the team Canada ... Though in this match, Shapo wasn't sharp and struggled with his first serve.
After this Yuki and Brayden Schnur played the 5th rubber, which didn't make any impact on overall tie ... Yuki kept his motivation of playing for the country and completed win in three sets ... With this loss we r back in Asia/ Oceania Group I.
