Tanvi Sharma is up against China's Gao Fangjie and is struggling in the first game against the world no. 10. Gao's netplay and impressive racket skills are on display as he committs Tanvi into errors. Tanvi loses the first game 21-9.
This a big test for Tanvi and she is struggling here against the world no. 10 shuttler from China. Gao is not giving any space for the young Indian to thrive as the latter races to 12-2 lead in the second game and seems like this could be wrapped well and truly, early.
It took Gao Fangjie just 33 minutes to wrap up the opening game as she defeats India's Tanvi Sharma 21-9, 21-9 in the first match of the Asia Team C'ships quarter-final clash. India 0-1 down to China already.
India women's doubles pair of Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Pullela are in action against Jia Yi Fan/Zhang Shuxian. Tough start for the Indian pair but they immediately make it 8-10 and seems like this will be close one to call.
What a contest this is turning out to be! Just as when one thought Jia Yi Fan/Zhang Shuxian will run away with this contest, this has turned out to be the exact opposite. Treesa Jolly/Gayatri Pullela lose first game 24-22 but not before giving them a tough fight.
Treesa Jolly/Gayatri Pullela, who put up a brave fight in the 1st game, are trailing in the second game. This is a good match and Jia Yi Fan/Zhang Shuxian are not finding it easy at the moment despite their slender lead.
Treesa Jolly/Gayatri Pullela loses in the second game 21-18 and ends up losing the match in the match. The first game was a close fight but the second game rather ended tamely. India are 0-2 down in the quarter-final and staring at early exit.
Rakshitha Sree Santhosh Ramraj is in singles action against Xu WJ and the world no. 52 takes a 11-6 lead in the first game. The young shuttler needs to win this match to keep India in the contest as they trail 0-2 to China.
Santhosh Ramraj has won the first game of her singles match against Xu. Despite some late fight back from the Chinese, Santhosh Ramraj wins 21-14, keeping India's faint hopes alive.
Santhosh Ramraj is in the third game against Xu. She lost the second game 21-15 and will have her backs against the wall in the third and decisive game. If she loses this match, India will be well and truly out of the contest.
Santhosh Ramraj loses her match as she goes down 21-14, 15-21, 17-21 in the women's singles match against Xu. Think that will be that for India women's contingent at the Badminton Asia Team Championships 2026 Quarter-Final as they find themselves 0-3 down.
