HS Prannoy played the second round of the Malaysia Masters and successfully entered the quarterfinals of the series. Prannoy is having a good year, after the Thomas Cup victory, he went to the quarter-finals of the Indonesia Open, where he was the only Indian at that stage. In the Malaysia Open, he exited in the semi-finals.
He may be having a good year, but apart from the Thomas Cup, he hasn’t entered any finals. Hopefully, this will be the series where India shines. Prannoy went against Wang Tzu-Wei of Taiwan. He dominated every game of this tournament to reach the quarterfinals. He barely sweats during his round against the Taiwanese.Â
