Indian Badminton players PV Sindhu, Kidambi Srikanth and Chirag Shetty, following their scintillating performance at the Commonwealth Games 2022, were welcomed by supporters and family members with bouquets at the Hyderabad airport on Wednesday (August 10) after they returned from Birmingham.
"I've been waiting for this (gold) for a long time now. Of course, I'm super happy. "I've finally done it. From day one it was important to keep my tempo high and be confident that I can do it," an elated Sindhu said after claiming the top honor.

"We've waited four years now and we're finally here. The Commonwealth Games was really good for me, it was a good tournament."
Contrary to the final scoreline, Sindhu said overcoming Li was not an easy task.
"It was very important to be very focused and in the rhythm. We know each other's game. There are no easy points so even though I was leading I made sure I was very focused."
