Incheon: India's badminton sensation, PV Sindhu went the full distance in the Asian Games team semi-finals but was still unable to put it past Korean Bae Yeon Ju, the very player she had beaten en route to her historic second World Championships medal a few weeks back.

The result was India, who went one-up after Saina Nehwal's 21-12, 10-21, 21-9 win over Sung Jihyun, were first caught at 1-1 and then folded 1-3 as the all-round superiority of the hosts ended their journey.
