EXEMPLARY SHOW FROM INDIAN BADMINTONERS; KHAZNIZOV TAKES DOWN P.V. SINDHU AT JAPAN OPEN

New Delhi, November 14, 2024 - India's top badminton hope PV Sindhu suffered her first loss of the season as she was knocked out by compatriot Sa Sania at the ongoing Japan Open. In a shocking upset, Sa Sania triumphed over Sindhu in a closely contested match.

However, not all Indian shuttlers were on the losing end. The country's other star, PV Sindhu struggled to find form against Michelle Li from China but will still look to bounce back and salvage her campaign.

In parallel games with top ranked Chinese player, Chen Yufei at India Open next year, other Indian players are gearing up for action.

On the field, PKL was high on excitement when UP Yoddhas are up against a formidable looking opponent in Telugu Titans and Tamil Thalaivas will be challenging themselves hard to face U Mumba.
