New Delhi: P Kashyap shone on debut while Saina Nehwal continued her rampaging run as India demolished a lowly Barbados 5-0 in the badminton mixed team event of the Commonwealth Games on Tuesday.


After dumping Kenya 5-0 on Monday, it was time for Barbados to face the music when mixed doubles pair of Jwala Gutta and V Diju took the court to start the proceedings for India.


The World number 11 Indian pair, who came into the tournament with a quarter-final finish in the World Champions in paris, thrashed Thorpe Dakeil Jonathan and Watson Shari Latoya 21-3 21-8 in just 11 minute match to put India ahead.
