(Pic credit: BAI) PV Sindhu, Kidambi Srikanth, Lakshya Sen and Treesa Jolly-Gayatri Gopichand stormed into the semi-finals at the 22nd Commonwealth Games in Birmingham on Saturday. PV Sindhu rallied back to edge past Goh Jin Wei of Malaysia 19-21, 21-14, 21-18 in a marathon match that lasted an hour and 17 minutes. It was a very shaky and unconvincing performance from top seed Sindhu. Double Olympic medalist Sindhu won the second game 21-14 after losing the first game to Goh of Malaysia 19-21. World No. 60 Goh was returning Sindhu's smashes quite easily, hence Sindhu had to prolong the rallies. The 27-year-old needed an extra half-step in speed to counter Goh. After both players shared their first two games, PV Sindhu, playing without much confidence, had a slender 11-10 lead in the decider. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post Sindhu repeatedly missed easy put-away smashes, hitting the sidelines. For a change, the Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist looked a bundle of nerves but was still leading 15-12 at a crucial juncture in the third and final game. PV Sindhu maintained her important lead and moved ahead 20-17. However, the gritty Malaysian saved a match point. Finally, the Indian shuttler converted her second match point to book her place in the last-four stage.
