As for Kidambi Srikanth, the 27-year-old, much like Sindhu, took the first set in his matchup against Anders Antonsen. However, Srikanth's troubles began in the second set, with his Danish opponent making him work hard with some brilliant cross-court play. Antonsen took the second set to level the game. The third game was a pulsating affair with both tied at 17-17 at one point, but Srikanth's fatigue and injury gave him away and Antonsen took the win 15-21, 21-16, 21-18.
