Preview: India, on Friday, were assured of two medals at the ongoing BWF World Championships 2021 in Huelva, Spain after ace shuttler Kidambi Srikanth and young Lakshya Sen advanced to the semi-finals of the tournament, eventually setting up what promises to be a thrilling all-Indian last four clash between the duo.
However, it was the end of PV Sindhu’s campaign as she failed to defend the title she won in 2019, losing to Tai Tzu Ying 17-21, 13-21 in the quarter-finals.
While Srikanth had it easy against Dutch shuttler Mark Caljouw, winning the contest 21-8, 21-7, Lakshya was made to work hard before overcoming Zhao Junpeng with a scoreline of 21-15, 15-21, 22-20.
Only two other men have won medals at the World Championships — Prakash Padukone (1983, bronze), and B Sai Praneeth (2019, bronze). And come Saturday, there will be an Indian man in the finals of the World Championships courtesy the result of Srikanth-Lakshya contest.
