PBL: Warriors beat Rockets

LUCKNOW: It was yet another disappointing day for

Mumbai Rockets

in the

Premier Badminton League

as

Parupalli Kashyap

was upstaged in his 'trump' match and the Rockets lost to

Awadhe Warriors

on Tuesday.


The home side registered an impressive 6-1 victory at the BBD Badminton Academy.

Though, Mumbai started off well by claiming the opening mixed doubles tie, but after

Beiwen Zhang

trounced a hapless Kuhoo Garg in the 'trump' match for the Warriors it became a do-or-die game for Kashyap. But the Glasgow CWG gold medallist couldn't repose the faith of his side as he went down to Vincent Wong Win Ki 15-8, 15-10.
