[Sandeep]

After a great run in Combodia, Vijay Sundar Prasanth has been lying low the past few months now. This is a great chance for him to have a good run here, not much of a competition in this tournament. Go Vijay

[Sandeep]

Vijay Sundar Prasant stumbled at the very first tough match he faced in this futures, he lost 4-6, 7-6(4), 3-6. May be the red clay undid him.
