Tokyo Paralympics: Krishna Nagar won India's 5th gold, beating Hong Kong's Chu Man Kai in badminton men's singles (SH6) final.
Krishna Nagar gave India it's fifth gold medal at the Tokyo Paralympic Games with a hard-fought win over Hong Kong's Chu Man Kai in the final of the men's singles (SH6) event on Sunday. This was the second gold medal for India in badminton in Tokyo after Pramod Bhagat won the men's singles title in the SL3 event on Saturday. Krishna Nagar produced yet another fine showing to win the final 21-17, 16-21, 21-17 in a match lasting a total of 43 minutes. Having blown away Great Britain's Krysten Coombs in the semi-finals, the second-seeded Indian went into the final as the hot favourite. However, Krishna Nagar didn't have it all his way in the final against his opponent from Hong Kong. He started the first game on the front foot but Chu Man Kai was always close behind and the Hong Kong shuttler went into the mid-game interval holding a slender lead.
