According to Shailendra Sharma, Vice President of the Rajya Vidyut Parishad Junior Engineer Sangathan, the feeder had gone down late at night, and Kumar worked from around 11:30 PM to 2:30 AM to fix it.

Das and Bhowmick, who entered the main draw as the wild cards, scripted a fairly tale run to beat the top seeded Ng Win Lam and Wong Hoi Tung of Hong Kong 3-1 in the final.
