Taking the court first, the last edition’s silver medallist Sindhu did not need her ‘A’ game since the Maldives shuttler was no match to her class.
Fathimath produced some resistance in the second game but Sindhu pulled away from 9-9.
Srikanth was crestfallen after losing his singles match against lower-ranked Tze Yong Ng of Malaysia in the mixed team final but the world number 13 seemed to have taken it in his stride as he comfortably beat his rival.

He used his cross-court angled drop shots to good effect to pocket points.
Most of the points which the Ugandan shuttler managed were from unforced errors of Srikanth.
