Basel (Switzerland): India's B Sai Praneeth dished out a superlative performance to stun world no 8 Anthony Sinisuka Ginting and progress to the quarterfinals but H S Prannoy's fight ended with a narrow loss at the BWF World Championships here on Thursday.

World No 19 Praneeth, who had reached the finals at Swiss Open this year, took just 42 minutes to dispatch sixth seeded Anthony of Indonesia 21-19 21-13 to set up a likely clash with another Indonesian Jonatan Christie, seeded fourth and the reigning Asian Games champion. Earlier, Prannoy showed glimpsed of brilliance, especially in the opening game, but couldn't stop World No 1 Kento Momota from registering a 21-19 21-12 win, his fifth victory over the Indian in as many encounters. In the opening game, Praneeth quickly erased a 0-3 deficit to move to a 8-5 deficit.
