Kidambi Srikanth vs Mithun Manjunath 

Manjunath, who had reached the finals of Orleans Masters Super 100 in April this year, beat world No. 11 Srikanth 21-17 15-21 21-18 in the opening round contest which lasted exactly an hour.

Manjunath, 24, came out all guns blazing as he dominated the opening game after taking an early 6-2 lead. He kept Srikanth at bay to comfortably seal the opening game. Srikanth, however, turned the tables after the change of sides as he enjoyed a 11-8 cushion at the break and kept extending his lead to come back into the contest.

The decider turned into a roller-coaster ride with the two slugging it out but it was Manjunath, who showed better control as he ensured a slender one-point advantage at the breather. Srikanth managed to take a 16-15 lead at one stage but Manjunath didn’t let the opportunity slip and reeled off the last three points from 18-18 to notch up one of the biggest win of his nascent international career.

The world No. 77 Indian, a product of the Prakash Padukone Badminton Academy, will next take on Ireland’s Nhat Nguyen.
