Kidambi Srikanth made short work of Wong Wing Ki Vincent, as he defeated the shuttler from Hong Kong in straight games, within a span of 39 minutes. Unlike yesterday, Srikanth was not really troubled by his opponent, as he negotiated the difficult moments in the two games with relative ease. With this, the 24-year-old makes it to his fourth final in 2017.
Brilliant play by Srikanth. He seemed down and out as Wong hit it towards the line, but he dived, and got back to his feet and brought in another smash to set up the point. 8-6.
Srikanth hits it long. The umpire first called in, and later changed the call. Srikanth wanted to challenge that, but was disallowed from doing that, as the umpire deemed his challenge request was too late. 4-1
