CWG 2022 – FULL COVERAGE | IN-DEPTH | INDIA FOCUS | OFF THE FIELD | IN PHOTOS | MEDAL TALLY Sen-sational Lakshya All badminton followers of the country were hoping for an all India final in men’s singles between Lakshya Sen and Kidambi Srikanth. I also could see that he was mixing the attack and defence nicely and this ensured that Tze Yang was out of the rhythm and the long rallies really frustrated him.” In fact, long fast rallies took a lot out of the Malaysian, who literally gave up the second game and tried to concentrate on the third game. An evening before the men’s singles gold medal match, Vimal sent a text to Lakshya advising him how to counter his opponent in the medal clash. From the start of the decider, the Indian took leads of 9-5, 15-9 and 18-11, and never looked back, carving out one of the most memorable victories to get India’s its third gold.
