Kidambi Srikanth marches into Rd 2 of Thailand Open

Bangkok, Jan 13 (UNI) Indian shuttler Kidambi Srikanth marched into the second round of the Thailand Open, after an easy win over fellow countryman Sourabh Verma on Wednesday.
Sourabh went down in two consecutive sets losing the game 21-12, 21-11.
Kidambi, who on Tuesday shared pictures of his bleeding nose, following the ''unacceptable'' treatment being meted out to him while conducting coronavirus tests, had to sweat less in a match that lasted just 31 minutes.
Earlier in the day, the Indian men's doubles pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty made their way into the second round of the tournament.
The world number ten Indian pair defeated the South Korean pair of Kim Gi Jung and Lee Yong Dae 19-21, 21-16, 21-14 in the first round of the tournament.
Meanwhile, the Badminton World Federation (BWF) on Wednesday said that a doctor from the COVID-19 testing team attended Kidambi "shortly" after the team member reported that he had a nosebleed following a coronavirus test.
"On Tuesday, the player indicated he suffered a nose bleed following a mandatory PCR test. A doctor from the COVID-19 testing team located at the hotel attended to Kidambi shortly after," the BWF said in a statement.
