Fresh from their Korea Open triumph, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty will look to continue their dream run, even as focus will be on the struggling singles stars such as P.V. Sindhu and Kidambi Srikanth in the Japan Open, beginning here on Tuesday.
The 2022 Commonwealth Games gold-winning Indian doubles pair of Satwik-Chirag on Sunday stunned world No. 1 pair of Fajar Alfian and Muhamad Rian Ardianto in a hard-fought final to extend their winning streak to 10 matches.
They have been in the form of their career, winning the Swiss Open, Asian Championships and Indonesia Open this year and will look to continue the good run when the third-seeded Indians open against Leo Rolly Carnando-Daniel Marthin of Indonesia in the Super 750 badminton tournament here.
