Good to see Joshna build on her great first round win. Now she needs to beat another top player to make the SF.

This was a very good win by Joshana too as Adel had easily beaten Dipika in the first round in straight games. Another top Egyptian girl awaits in the QF.

Are there only Indian & Egyptians playing in this tournament ?
