Anshu had lost to Iryna Kurachkina of Belarus in the pre-quarterfinal on Wednesday. But Koblova, who had also lost to Iryna and was also to play in the repechage as she had lost to the eventual finalist, proved too strong for Anshu as she emerged 5-1 winner.
It was a good chance for Anshu in the repechage but she could not capitalise on it.
