Sindhu trailing 9-17 in first game against Shixian Wang. Law of averages catching up with her or Chinese figuring her out ?

Sindhu lost quite tamely against the Chinese. She might be a bit tired too after her effort last week.

[R1] P.V. Sindhu (IND,13) l. (4) WANG Shixian (CHN,5) 11-21 10-21

4-2 for us now today.

[R1] Ajay JAYARAM d Hans-Kristian VITTINGHUS 21-18 18-21 21-18

So it is 5-2 for the day. The highlight being Prannoy's victory of Lin Dan -- recall that Srikanth did the same last year and he was a much better player after that win.

[R1] (8) PARUPALLI Kashyap (IND,8) vs. Rajiv OUSEPH (ENG,22)
[R1] H. S. Prannoy (IND,16) vs. NG Ka Long Angus (HKG,29)

Saina plays the same player who beat her last week easily. Ajay plays Shrikath's conqueror.

Live score for Kashyap's match has disappeared.

Edit: Kashyap has retired at 2-4 in the third set. Injury?

I know a lot of our players are in really poor form since the Rio qualification period started but assuming the current rankings hold and we do have 2 quota places in MS, who would be your picks out of Srikanth, Kashyap, Prannoy and Jayaram.
