Sindhu could easily seal the opening game with the lead of 11-4 by the break, before sweating hard in the second game.

The lanky Indian picked up very well from the trail of 10-3 to 11-8. Later post breather, the game was very intense in the favour of the Indian, yet, where she could pull off straight 5 points to lead with 16-13 and grab the match to her kitty.
