Kashyap fought his way through the 59 minutes before suffering a 13-21 21-8 20-22 loss against Raul, who had beaten the Indian last week at Dutch Open as well.
In the opening game, Kashyap squandered a 9-7 lead as Raul rode on a seven-point burst to turn the tables and never looked back.
In the second, Kashyap changed gears and dished out a dominating game and roared back into the contest. In the decider, Kashyap fought back from 8-16 down to catch up with Raul at 19-19 and also held a slender 20-19 match point but it was just not his day as the Estonian grabbed the three points.
