B Sai Praneeth and Sourabh Verma advanced to the third round of the Thailand Grand Prix Gold after notching up contrasting wins in the men's singles competition, here yesterday.
Sourabh survived a challenge from Anand Pawar 21-17, 20-22, 21-14, while third seed Praneeth defeated Malaysia's R Satheishtharan 21-15, 21-13.
However, it turned out to be a dismal day for other Indians with P Kashyap, Shreyansh Jaiswal and Subhankar Dey bowing out of the men's singles competition, while Reshma Kashyap, who earlier defeated Slovekia's Milan Dratva 21-6, 21-14, went down 14-21, 18-21 to second seeded Marc Zwiebler of Germany in the second round match, which took place in less than 12 hours of his first-round clash.
