Sindhu looked in complete control as she needed just 46 minutes to outclass the

"Yeah, I am very happy. I was playing with her for the first time. There were some long rallies. I am happy that I could give my 100 percent. I need to get back and recover for tomorrow and come back stronger," Sindhu said after the win.
