Indian shuttler beats No. 3 seed, to face Prannoy in pre-quarters; Sindhu wins too
PARIS: After the early morning rain, the light, moist breeze felt good on the face. A good night's sleep following the long train journey from Chateauroux on Tuesday night had helped. Coming out of the Metro, just outside the Porte de la Chapelle, one noticed that the cobbled sidewalk leading to the stadium had impressions of a shuttlecock. And a little ahead, a barbell, which reminded one of Mirabai Chanu. But that is for another day. Wednesday morning was about our badminton stars, in the fight for knockout last-16 singles berths.
