Chen-Liu take Game 1!

A lift gone long and a good shot into the body helps Satwik-Chirag save two match points. A tense, fast rally follows and the Indians are on the defensive.

Chen-Liu pocket the first game 21-19. 

How the tables turned. The Indians had a six-point advantage at mid-game interval before they lost the plot completely.
