There were question marks over her form and return from injury, that had dragged on for months. The fact that a younger player like PV Sindhu overtook her in the rankings further fuelled the discussion.

Saina answered all her critics with a superlative show as she helped India win the mixed team championship for the first time, and also bagged the singles crown that she had last won in 2010.

Her duel with Sindhu in the women’s singles final kept the crowd enthralled. She now has to start winning titles again and climb up in the rankings.
