India Storms Into Quarterfinals of Badminton Asia Junior Mixed Team Championships With 110–83 Win Over UAE

India secured a spot in the quarterfinals of the Badminton Asia Junior Mixed Team Championships with a dominant 110-83 victory over the United Arab Emirates in their Group D clash today at Solo in Indonesia. This win follows India’s impressive opening-day triumph over Sri Lanka yesterday.  
       
The tournament is being played under a relay scoring format, where teams race to 110 points across 10 matches.
       
India got off to a flying start, with girls’ singles player Rujula Ramu defeating Mysha Khan 11-5, followed by the mixed doubles pairing of C Lalramsanga and Taarini Suri extending the lead to 22-11. India maintained the lead throughout the contest, despite spirited resistance from the UAE in a few matches. At the halfway stage, the scoreboard read 55-41 in India’s favour. US Open finalist Tanvi Sharma then delivered a clinical performance to stretch the lead to 66-46 against Madhumita Sundarapandian. Lalramsanga returned to court, this time partnering Reshika U in the second mixed doubles rubber, where they outplayed Adithya Kiran and Mysha Khan 11-5 to take India further ahead to 77-51, effectively putting the team in the driver’s seat.
       
India will now look to maintain their momentum and finish top of the group with a win against Hong Kong China tomorrow.
