Thomas Cup QF, IND vs MAS, Lakshya Sen 17-17 Lee Zii Jia: A lift goes long and the Indian is in the lead.... Lakshya does have a 2-0 lead H2H but the most recent win in All England is the one the Indian will need to fall back on and take inspiration from. IND 0-1 MAS, Lakshya Sen 21-23, 9-21 Lee Zii Jia: Match, LZJ! The Malaysian went on a roll in the second game and Lakshya had no answers.

Lakshya Sen had two game points, then LZJ had one before converting his second after a series of lovely exchanges. Thomas Cup QF, IND vs MAS, Lakshya Sen 1-3 Lee Zii Jia: Here we go then.
