Pooran also opined that he is striking the ball well; however, things have not gone his way, which has been a bit unfortunate for them. "I'm feeling really good and striking the ball nicely. Unfortunately, it hasn't been going my way this time in the tournament. But that's happened before. I've been in this position already; I know how to fight. And I believe I'll get out of this," he concluded.
