Indian tennis players Saketh Myneni and Ramkumar Ramanathan secured the silver medal in the men's doubles event at the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games on Friday. The Indian duo lost the final 4-6, 4-6 to Chinese Taipei's Jason Jung and Hsu Yu-hsiou in a match lasting 1 hour and 12 minutes. Ramanathan showed visible frustration with the raucous Chinese fans during the match. The defeat ended India's hopes of improving on Myneni's previous doubles silver medal from the 2014 Asian Games. With the silver, India's overall medal count rose to 28, including 7 golds. Despite the loss, Myneni and Ramanathan added another medal for India in tennis. (Image Courtesy: Narendra Modi on X)
