Young paddler Sreeja Akula and Reeth Tennison started off well against Natalie Cummings and Chelsea Edghill. The Indians were on the money and edged the Guyanese pair 11-5, 11-7. 11-7.

It was just one-way traffic as Manika Batra grew from strength to strength with each passing point. Such was Manika's dominance that Thuraia could only manage a total of seven points in three games. With Manika winning 11-1, 11-3, 11-3 to help India take a 2-0 lead in the tie.

While it looked like wrapping up the third game was just a mere formality, Reeth Tennison was troubled by Chelsea Edghill. Although the Indian started well by winning the first game by 11-7, she was stretched to win the next two on extended points.

The duo matched shot-to-shot and unforced errors did not help Reeth Tennison either. The Indian managed to wrap up the second game at 14-12.

Reeth Tennison was put on the backfoot by Edghill in the third game but used all her experience to emerge victorious 13-11 to seal the tie in India's favor.
