Lovely badminton from Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty.
Instead of relying on their full bodied smashes, they have played the second game so calculative and smart, earning them a win by 21-13.
I think Satwik’s shoulder injury has played a part in this style of play as the duo have relied on placing the shuttle intelligently across the court, instead of out powering the opponent.
With the win in the second game, Sat-Chi have levelled the tie at 1-1, and we are once again playing a decider.
Lakshya Sen lost the first tie in the deciding game, Indian fans will hope that their fortunes change in this one.
