BENGALURU: It has been a defining year for the Indian men’s doubles badminton pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty. Besides being ranked as world number one for a while, they won three BWF titles and gold at the Hangzhou Asian Games.
The Khel Ratna award – India’s highest sporting honour – came as a icing on the cake. But the hungry duo, who represented IOCL in the PSPB Inter-Unit Team Championship here, has set higher goals.
