The top-ranked Indian duo of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty were eliminated in the pre-quarterfinals of the men's doubles at the All England Badminton Championships on Thursday.
They suffered a straight-game defeat against Muhammad Shohibul Fikri and Bagas Maulana of Indonesia. The Indian pair, who clinched the French Open title last week, couldn't maintain their form against the Indonesian opponents, losing 16-21, 15-21 in just over an hour.
