Team England's Rajiv Ouseph has said that he is happy with his "solid" start to the men's singles at the Commonwealth Games.
The 27-year-old eased past Zambia's Chongo Mulenga in straight sets at the Emirates Arena earlier today, booking his place in the round of 32 with a 21-10 21-9 victory.
"It was nice just to get off to a solid win and take it match by match now," Ouseph told reporters. "I will now sleep and recover - a classic athlete's day I think."
Of his 15-year-old opponent, Ouseph added: "He was better than I thought he was going to be. It was probably a nice occasion for him. For that age, he is not bad at all."
Ouseph won a silver medal in the men's singles event in Delhi four years ago.
