^^^ Too early say Sania Mirza type, this is just a 35K tournament but this week she has been absolutely on tear.

[SF] Shrivalli Rashmikaa Bhamidipaty (IND,486) d. Polina Iatcenko (RUS,301) 63 64

Next,

[F] Shrivalli Rashmikaa Bhamidipaty (IND,486) vs. Dallia Jakupovic (SLO,213)

This is a real test for Shrivalli in the final. 32 year old Dallia is a former top 70 player who is on a 9 match winning streak having the title in Nagpur last week and also reached SF at Gurugram in the earlier week.

I read somewhere that the courts are bit faster here.

Expected. This is an Indore court we are talking of.

[Omkara]

Yes Indore courts are faster. It fast tracked by career

Shrivalli !!!!

[sameerph]

Shrivalli lost in the final in straight sets against Dallia who won back to back titles in last 2 weeks.

[F] Shrivalli Rashmikaa Bhamidipaty (IND,486) l. (2) Dallia Jakupovic (SLO,213) 36 26

Anyway, very good week for Shrivalli and she will move to a new career high of around 440 in 2 weeks time.

[jayakris]

Shrivalli seemed to be unable to convert break points all match long today...

Shrivalli finally succumbed to the top seed in the singles final, but what a week this has otherwise been for her! Doubles title and singles runner-up is a huge achievement. Well done!
