Asmita secured her spot in the main draw after a long time. Due to being out of action for days, Asmita had dropped out of the world ranking list. In today&#8217;s qualification matches, Asmita won 21-20, 21-16, 21-16 against her opponents.<br>In the final qualification match, she defeated China&#8217;s Taipei player. Despite losing the first game by a narrow margin, Asmita&#8217;s aggressive style of play in the next two games forced her opponent to surrender. Facing China&#8217;s Taipei player in the main draw will be a major challenge. Even if she loses against the world No. 58 ranked player in the main draw, Asmita has bid farewell with an attractive performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Returning to the international cricket\u2014uh, table tennis\u2014circuit after injuries and out-of-pocket expenses, Assam&#8217;s daughter Asmita&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":3644,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3643","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3643","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3643"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3643\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3645,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3643\/revisions\/3645"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3644"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3643"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3643"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theimphalreporter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3643"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
