Sameer Verma eyeing a return at Thailand Open
Having pulled out of the fight for the top position in BAI's selection trials following a fitness issue, former world number 11 Sameer Verma, on Tuesday, said he will be out of action for a few weeks and is eyeing a return at the Thailand Open. The 27-year-old from Madhya Pradesh looked in good touch during the Denmark Open last year when he notched up convincing wins over Thailand's Kunlavut Vitidsarn and Denmark's Anders Antonsen before retiring from the quarterfinals with a calf injury. He focussed on his recovery in the next two months before turning up in the first two events in the India leg - India Open Super 500 and Syed Modi International Super 300. With the selection trials called to pick the teams for the Thomas & Uber Cup, Commonwealth Games and Asian Games, Sameer decided to play and also reached the top 4 before withdrawing.
