Top India shuttler Kidambi Srikanth has won a number of important titles in his career, but it's not often that the normally reticent badminton ace yells with happiness and smashes his racket on the badminton court. However, the Thomas Cup showed us a side of him we had never seen before.

Mathias Boe, the doubles team coach, made sure throughout the match he maintained his poker face, and he should be awarded for how cool and relaxed he looked without showing any signs of nervousness. He recently joined the Indian team in May as the bnew doubles coach.

It was a heartbreak for the Indian fans as the women's team lost their quarterfinals tie 0-3 against Thailand in Thomas and Uber Cup on Thursday. It all started with double Olympic medalist PV Sindhu losing out to Ratchanok Intanon in three games, 21-18 17-21 12-21, which handed Thailand the lead.

In a poor outing for the Indian women at the Thomas and Uber Cup, the team lost 0-5 to Korea in their final league match on Wednesday. This means that India finishes second in their group behind Korea and still manage to qualify for the quarters, after their wins against Canada and USA, earlier.
