It was a disappointing day for India as wild card Ritwik Bhattacharya could not raise his game despite the strong crowd support and went down to 10th seed Alister Walker of England 4-11, 5-11, 3-11.

The former national champion played well in patches but was no match to the consistency of his higher-ranked opponent and went down in just under 30 minutes.
