Injuries chance I dented Indian as they squandered a 2-0 lead and lost Men's team Badminton final to China 2-3 to be content with a silver in the Asian Games at Hangzhou China on Sunday.

In the final against the defending champions, the Indian team had the odds stacked against it with HS Prannoy, their top-ranked singles player in the world badminton rankings, sidelined from the tie with a back injury.

However, Lakshya Sen and Chirag Shetty-Satwiksairaj Rankireddy stepped up to the occasion with victories against tough opponents to give India hope. However, Kidambi Srikanth, Dhruv Kapila-K Sai Pratheek and Mithun Manjunath, who came in for the tie in place of HS Prannoy, though, failed to capitalise on the lead as India lost 2-3.
