What an occasion it was, if the women schuttlers are already making us proud at the global stage, here are the men and they will not stay behind. At the Singapore Super Series, where PV Sindhu lost to Carolina Marin, Sai Praneeth and Kidambi Srikanth made it to the finals in a world dominated majorly by Chinese players. Sai Praneeth of course went on to beat his compatriot Kidambi Srikanth. The scoreline was 17-21, 21-17, 21-12. So, it was a comprehensive win for the other Indian.Kidambi, who was the favourite to win the match, made a strong start as he sealed the first game 21-17 in 19 minutes. This is how Twitter reacted. But yes there was very little to choose between the two, the game was played in high-intensity and spirit.
