Lakshya Sen came up with another stunning show as he ousted world champion Loh Kean Yew to help India reach their second consecutive mixed team final with a 3-0 victory against Singapore.
At the Arena Badminton, the same venue where he reached the All England final, Lakshya outclassed Loh in straight games 21-18, 21-15. The gamble to prefer Lakshya ahead of Kidambi Srikanth paid off as the youngster dished out one of his best game to beat Loh. Incidentally, this is the second time this year that Lakshya got the better of Loh. India will play Malaysia for the gold medal on Tuesday.
