She faces Nicolette Fernandes, the sixth seed from Guyana, in the semifinals.“I knew it was going to be tough against Salma as I got chopped in three games the last time I played against her. The first game was crucial and it was good that I won it after trailing 7-10. From there on I became more confident and that helped in the next two games. Very pleased with the win as Salma is such a talented player,” said Pallikal.
