India’s chances of qualifying for the knock-out of the Sudirman Cup took a huge crumble as they were vanquished 1-4 by Thailand in their opening Group A match on Sunday. They are set to face defending champions China on Monday.The Indian contingent have stepped onto the court without star shuttlers PV Sindhu and Saina Nehwal and the men’s doubles pair of Chirag Shetty and Satwiksairaj Rankireddy.At a time like this, others had to step up for the occasion. However, India were on the back-foot from the start as Kidambi Srikanth went down to three-time junior champion Kunlavut Vitidsarn 9-21 19-21 in the first singles matchup.The men’s pair of MR Arjun and Dhruv Kapila won their men's doubles match against Supak Jomkoh and Kittinupong Kedren.
