Kidambi Srikanth will have a chance to win a historic gold medal for India when he takes the court on Sunday for the final of the BWF World Championship 2021. He became the first-ever Indian male shuttler to guarantee himself a silver medal by securing a berth for the titular clash as he defeated his compatriot Lakhsya Sen 17-21, 21-14, 21-17 in the semifinal.
Srikanth will be up against Singapore's Loh Kean Yew in the summit clash. He would definitely be high on confidence after a comeback from behind victory in the semifinals but it won't be that easy either since he will not only fight an opponent but also the pressure of the grand occasion.
One thing is certain though that a billion hearts back home in India will beat for Srikanth when he faces Loh Kean Yew, the 24-year-old who was the flag bearer of Singapore in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, in the finale.
