HANGZHOU: India's Ramkumar Ramanathan and Saketh Myneni weren't only up against a formidable Chinese Taipei challenge but also a vociferous 'home' crowd, which was raucous in their support for the Taiwanese pair in the men's doubles final of the tennis competition here on Friday.
While a handful of Indian supporters at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre did their best to cheer up the duo, the constant shouting in between the rallies frustrated Ramanathan and Myneni to such an extent that they called for the chair umpire's intervention several times.
