Kaula Lumpur: Saina Nehwal started her campaign in the Asian Junior badminton championship with a victory over Guerrero Raquel of Philippines in the second round singles event here. Sixteen-year-old Saina, seeded second, scored a convincing 21-2, 21-8 win over Raquel to move into the third round where she meets China's Wen Cheng. Saina, who rose to stardom after a historic Philippines Open win last month, had got a bye in the first round.

In the girls' doubles, Gayatri Vartak and Nischita beat Hong Kong's Chan Tsz Ka and Yeung Hin Tung 21-16, 21-15 in the only match featuring Indians. UNI
