A setback for us as Satwik withdrawing due to a shoulder injury ... And N. Sikki also withdraws from the mixed doubles, so no pair in the mixed doubles.
Sai and Prannoy started their campaign with contrasting wins ... Again slow start for Srikanth, after losing the first game he won last two games ... But Sameer failed to complete the win after winning the first game against Yew.
Saina and Sindhu have received a bye as seeded players.
In the doubles, Meghana and Poorvisha started with an expected win but they r facing the WR #8 Japanese pair in the second round.
