HO CHI MINH, Sep 14: Talented women’s doubles pair of Simran Singhi and Ritika Thaker kept India’s flag fluttering at the Vietnam Open Super 100 badminton tournament by progressing to the quarterfinals here on Thursday.
Simran and Ritika, seeded third, beat Malaysian pair of Lee Zhi Qing and Desiree Hao Shan Siow 21-10 21-18 in the second round to set up a clash with Chinese Taipei’s Jiang Yi-Hua and Li Zi Qing.
