Hong Kong's badminton duo Chu Man-kai and Wong Chun-yim won a silver medal at a men's doubles event of the Asian Para Games on Friday.

The pair lost in the SH6 doubles final 14-21 and 8-21 to their opponents, Lin Naili and Zeng Qingtao of China.

Speaking after the match, Wong said they could not adjust to how their rivals played and it was too late when they found a way to handle them.

Chu had bagged the gold medal in the men's SH6 singles earlier in the day.

Sports secretary Kevin Yeung congratulated the pair on their achievement.

"With their all-out effort, Chu and Wong displayed their strength and passion for the sport on the court, demonstrating the demeanour of great athletes. We are so proud of them," he said.
