Incheon: India made a resounding start in the individual badminton event of the 17th Asian Games with ace shuttlers Saina Nehwal and P V Sindhu sailing into the second round of women's singles competition here today.

While Olympics bronze medallist Saina made mincemeat of her lesser-known opponent U Teng Iok of Macau, notching up a 21-10 21-8 win, Sindhu whipped Kit Leng Wong of Macau 21-17 21-13 in another lop-sided match that lasted for 19 minutes at the Gyeyang Gymnasium here.
