India's premier doubles duo, Satwik and Chirag, enter the China Open quarterfinals with a thrilling victory. Despite Prannoy's exit, the duo's performance was a masterclass in tactics and resilience.

Satwiksairaj and Chirag Secure Quarterfinal Spot in China Open

Satwiksairaj and Chirag shine at the China Open, advancing to the quarterfinals with a 21-19, 21-19 win over Indonesia. Their tactical play and resilience were key, despite HS Prannoy's exit in singles.

Satwik & Chirag Reach China Open Quarters

Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty advanced to the China Open quarterfinals with a 21-19, 21-19 win over an Indonesian pair. HS Prannoy was defeated by Chou Tien Chen in the singles competition.

&nbsp;
Changzhou (China), Jul 24 (PTI) &mdash; India's premier men's doubles badminton duo, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty, progressed to the quarterfinals of the prestigious China Open Super 1000 tournament with a straight-game win over Indonesia's Leo Rolly Carnando and Bagas Maulana. The match, held on Thursday, saw them overcoming the eighth-seeded Indonesian pair with scores of 21-19, 21-19.
Previously ranked world number one, the Indian pair showcased outstanding tactical discipline and composure to prevail in a closely-contested clash. "The match was quite topsy-turvy, with momentum swinging back and forth continuously. Neither side managed to score a considerable lead. However, by the time it was 16-something, we managed a breakthrough by gaining a lead of 3&ndash;4 consecutive points, which helped us secure the first game," commented Chirag Shetty.
Chirag added, "Entering the second game, we perhaps needed to remain a bit calmer. Not necessarily safer, just calmer, to restrict their play. The Indonesians played exceptionally well, especially with their service receives. Overall, we're pleased to have secured the win."
Unfortunately, it was the end of the competition for HS Prannoy, who was ousted after a hard-fought 21-18, 15-21, 8-21 defeat by the sixth seed, Chou Tien Chen of Chinese Taipei, during a gripping 65-minute men's singles second-round match.
Satwik and Chirag were put to the test throughout the match. The opening game saw the Indonesians leading at 8-6 and later at 14-12, although the Indians maintained close proximity. From 14-16 down, the Indian pair impressively won five consecutive points to take a significant lead at 19-16, eventually closing out the initial game.
The second game mirrored the first, with the Indonesian duo initially taking a 14-10 advantage. However, the Indian team staged a comeback, leveling at 18-18 before displaying nerves of steel to close the match.
"With each passing day, our performance seems to improve, though there's still much ground to cover before we reach our peak. Despite not being at our best, I'm satisfied with our gameplay," Chirag stated. "Our tournament participation has been sparse over the past year, which is partly why we've decided to compete in Macau next."

Badminton: Lakshya Sen, Satwik-Chirag bow out of Japan Open

India&rsquo;s campaign at the Japan Open 2025 ended in the second round with Lakshya Sen and Satwik-Chirag suffering straight-game losses to top opponents.

Indian shuttlers continued to falter at the Japan Open with Lakshya Sen and the star men's doubles duo of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty bowing out in the second round of the Super 750 badminton tournament in Tokyo on Thursday.
World No. 18 Lakshya's inconsistent run resulted in a 19-21, 11-21 loss to Japan's Kodai Naraoka in the men's singles that lasted close to an hour.
The 23-year-old, who had looked promising in the opener with a commanding 21-11, 21-18 win over China's Wang Zheng Xing, failed to carry the momentum forward.
In the men's doubles, Satwik and Chirag were handed a 22-24, 14-21 defeat by the fifth-seeded Chinese combine of Liang Wei Keng and Wang Chang in a battle between former world No. 1 pairs.
With this win, Paris Olympics silver medallists Wei Keng and Wang Chang extended their head-to head lead over the Indians to 7-2.
After a slow start, the Indian pair did well to to take 18-14 lead but couldn't hold on to the momentum as their Chinese counterparts sealed a thrilling first game.
The world number five Chinese duo continue in the same vein in the second game as Satwik and Chirag struggled with their smashes and defence to concede their fourth defeat in the trot to Wei Ken and Chang.

Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty advance in the Indonesia Open after a thrilling win, while PV Sindhu exits. The duo are now India’s sole hope in the tournament.

Satwik & Chirag shine in Indonesia Open, Sindhu exits early

Satwik and Chirag advance to the quarterfinals of the Indonesia Open, overcoming the Danish pair in a thrilling match. PV Sindhu exits after a tough loss. The duo remains India's last hope at the tournament.

India&rsquo;s top men&rsquo;s doubles pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty advanced to the quarterfinals, while two-time Olympic medallist PV Sindhu lost in the women's singles second round at the Indonesia Open Super 1000 badminton tournament here on Thursday. Satwik and Chirag, the 2023 champions, showed great temperament under pressure to register a hard-fought 16-21, 21-18, 22-20 win over world number 16 Danish pair of Rasmus Kjaer and Frederik Sogaard in a 68-minute second-round clash.
Satwik and Chirag, who had reached the semifinals of the Singapore Open Super 750 last week, thus remained the only surviving Indians in the competition.
The former world number one pair will face Malaysian seventh seeds Man Wei Chong and Kai Wun Tee next.
"Today felt like one of those days where we just weren&rsquo;t at our best," Satwik said.
"It wasn&rsquo;t about the strategy being wrong &mdash; it was more that we were giving away the points. If you look back, nearly 15 to 20 points came from our own mistakes. They didn&rsquo;t win those points &mdash; we handed them over.
"In the first game, it was 15-all, and then suddenly it slipped to 21-15. I just felt like we weren&rsquo;t focused enough &mdash; like we weren&rsquo;t really there today. But even then, we kept believing, taking it one point at a time.
"The coaches kept telling us, &lsquo;Calm down, it&rsquo;s okay even if you lose, just relax.&rsquo; So we tried to stay calm and composed, to just play our game and see how it goes," he added.
Earlier, Sindhu faltered in the deciding game to go down to world number 8 Pornpawee Chochuwong of Thailand in the second round.
Sindhu squandered a 15-11 lead in the decider to lose 22-20, 10-21, 18-21 in a gruelling 78-minute battle.
It was a disappointing day for the rest of the Indian contingent, as Sathish Karunakaran and Aadya Variyath, along with the women&rsquo;s doubles pair of Gayatri Gopichand and Treesa Jolly, also bowed out in the second round.
While Sathish and Aadya were outclassed 7-21, 12-21 by the sixth-seeded Thai duo of Dechapol Puavaranukroh and Supissara Paewsampran in just 25 minutes, Gayatri and Treesa put up a fight before losing 13-21, 22-24 to Japan's Yuki Fukushima and Mayu Matsumoto in 46 minutes.
Satwik and Chirag, playing only their second tournament since returning from injury, had to do the catch-up in the opening game, as the Danes dominated the net play with sharp interceptions and won most of the short rallies.
The Indians trailed 6-10 at one stage and, although they pulled level with four straight points, the Danish pair kept their nose ahead to pocket the opening game.
The second game was a tight affair, with the Indians putting pressure on the back court. From 14-14, Satwik and Chirag reeled off five straight points to force a decider.
They carried the momentum into the third game, racing to a 5-1 lead. But the Danes clawed their way back to 8-8 after two unforced errors from Satwik. The short rallies continued and the Danes held a slender one-point lead at the mid-game interval.
The Indians stayed close at 14-15 despite a few misjudged lifts going long. Two quick points earned by Chirag brought them back at 16-17, and they eventually levelled at 19-19.
The Danes earned a match point, but Chirag&rsquo;s sharp body return made it 20-all. Chirag then produced a fine serve to earn match point, and Satwik sealed the win with a precise return that caught the line, sparking celebrations.
In the women's singles, Sindhu looked in control after overturning a 10-16 deficit to win the first game. She led 15-11 in the decider and had the momentum, but a series of errors proved costly.
Chochuwong capitalised on the lapse, winning five straight points &mdash; four of them due to Sindhu&rsquo;s miscued smashes and drops in fast conditions.
"I think I should have converted it to win...but overall, I'm happy with my performance. A lot to learn from this match and this tournament as well and prepare for the next one," Sindhu said.

World No. 1 pair Satwik-Chirag emerged victorious on March 10 to clinch their second French Open Super 750 title against the Chinese Taipei pair.

Home favourites Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty went down in a tense final against world champions Kang Min Hyuk and Seo Sang Jae at India Open, settling for their second successive runners-up finish, in New Delhi on Sunday.
Satwik and Chirag, the Asian Games champions, lost 21-15 11-21 18-21 to Kang and Seo after the two pairs fought for 65 minutes in what was some breath-taking badminton at the KD Jadhav Indoor stadium in the national capital.
The Indian duo, which won the 2022 edition, had finished second best at the Malaysia Super 1000 last week as well.
Satwik and Chirag always had tough matches against their Korean rivals though they boasted a 4-1 head-to-head count in five meetings coming into the match with the latest being at the Malaysia Open last week.
The Indian duo played some breath-taking rallies, displaying amazing reflexes as they kept the Korean pair under the pump with some relentless hitting in the opening game.
Chirag dazzled in the front court with some brilliant net interceptions as the duo led 11-9 and soon jumped to 19-13 after the break before pocketing the game when the Koreans netted a shot.
The Indian pair made a sloppy start in the second, falling behind 1-5 but change of pace and angled returns helped them make it 5-7 with Satwik standing tall at the front court and producing a net kill.
A couple of net errors from Chirag during flat exchanges gave the Koreans a six-point advantage.
The Koreans defended well, while India's attack seemed to lose a bit of sting as Kang and Seo grabbed a 10-point advantage at 15-5. Kang stepped up with his serve and showed good variations. The Koreans held 10 game points and they converted in the second chance to roar back into the contest.
In the decider, the Koreans kept a high tempo with Kang flying across the front court as they lead 9-5. The Koreans didn't allow the Indians to play their attacking game.
Another exciting rally ensued with the Indians finding the net as Kang and Seo grabbed a five-point cushion at the interval.
After the change of sides, Satwik stepped up at the front court as the momentum seemed to change in India's favour with the Korean committing a service error and then finding the net.
The Koreans opted for low serve but Chirag was upto the task as they brought the equation down to two points at 13-15 soon. Satwik then sent one to the corners, while Chirag unleashed a smash as one point separated the two pairs at 15-16.
A superb low shot from forehand corner from Satwik was negated by Chirag's net error. Kang then sent one down the line to put themselves two point away from the title.
Kang found the net next, while Chirag dominated a flat exchange as it was 18-19. The Koreans grabbed two championships point when Satwik sent one wide.
It was all over when Chirag sent one to the net and fell on the floor.

The Indian pair's dream run at the Malaysia Open ended with a narrow 21-9 18-21 17-21 loss in the men's doubles final

Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty are "more hungry" after a runner-up finish at the Malaysia Open Super 1000 and would look to go one better at next week's India Open as they aim to claim their first silverware of the new season.
The Indian pair's dream run at the Malaysia Open ended with a narrow 21-9 18-21 17-21 loss in the men's doubles final to world No. 1 Chinese Liang Wei keng and Wang Chang here on Sunday.
The Asian Games gold medallists will be one of the top contenders for the India Open Super 750 crown beginning on Tuesday at the IG Stadium in New Delhi.
"We want to do well in our home country next week, so we don't want to relax with this, we are more hungry and next week also we want to do well in front our home crowd," Satwik said after finishing second best at the first event of the year.
Chirag added: "We obviously could have played a lot better towards the end. I think what's important is to look at the positives also, we have played some good badminton here but we are not done yet. India Open is coming up next week and we want to go one better." Satwik and Chirag, the Asian Games gold medallists, squandered an opening game advantage and an 11-7 lead in the decider to lose the summit clash.
It was a fourth defeat for the Indian pair against Liang, 23, and 22-year-old Wang, having lost three of their last four meetings -- all in 2023. The only time Satwik and Chirag had emerged victories was during their title-winning run at Korea Open Super 500 last year.
"Till we retire we will be playing against them for a long time. It is always tough fight against them. We are happy with what we wanted to achieve, we are happy we could go deep into the tournament," Satwik said.
"I feel it is still not my 100 per cent, there is something inside me, I am not satisfied.
"In few other tournaments, I felt I was 100 percent but here we played finals but still I felt like we played 60-70 per cent. So, if we can play our 100 per cent then we would like to see what happens against them." Satwik and Chirag have been the most successful Indian players in the circuit last year, having won the Asian Games gold, titles in Asian Championship, Indonesian Super 1000, Korea Super 500 and Swiss Open Super 300.
They also reached the finals of China Masters Super 750 in November last year.

It was a fourth defeat for the Indian pair against this Chinese pair, having lost 3 of their last four meetings -- all in 2023.

Malaysia Open: Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty go down fighting in final

India's Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty faltered at the finishing line to end their dream run at the Malaysia Open Super 1000 with a narrow loss in the men's doubles final.

It was a fourth defeat for the Indian pair against this Chinese pair, having lost 3 of their last four meetings -- all in 2023.

India's Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty faltered at the finishing line to end their dream run at the Malaysia Open Super 1000 with a narrow loss in the men's doubles final against world No. 1 Chinese Liang Wei keng and Wang Chang on Sunday.
Satwik and Chirag, the Asian Games gold medallists, squandered an opening game advantage and an 11-7 lead in the decider to go down 21-9, 18-21, 17-21 to Liang and Wang in the summit clash which saw both the pairs displaying some exquisite strokeplay.
It was a fourth defeat for the Indian pair against this Chinese pair, having lost 3 of their last four meetings -- all in 2023. The only time Satwik and Chirag had emerged victories was during their title-winning run at Korea Open Super 500 last year.
In fast playing conditions, the Indians dominated the proceedings early on, cruising to a 5-1 lead with the help of some angled returns and accurate placements.
Satwik and Chirag looked in complete control while their opponents were a bit nervy as they played short and pacy rallies comprising just 5-8 flat and fast shots.
The Indians had a seven-point advantage at the break when the Chinese went to the net.
The targeted returns of the Indians often left the Chinese cramped as they patrolled the front court. Soon the Indians were 18-9 up and grabbed the opening game after Liang went wide and long.
It was time for the Chinese pair to run up a 8-2 lead after the change of ends as the Indians repeatedly missed their mark. Satwik also committed a service error as the Chinese duo was 9-5 up and when Chirag mistimed a return-to-serve, it was a 11-6 advantage for Liang and Wang.
The match didn't see too many smashes as none of the pairs tried to lift and kept the shuttle flat during the rallies. The focus was to find gaps and angles without compromising on the pace.
After resumption, the Indians started to draw out errors from their opponents to make it 15-17. A short serve from Satwik gave two game points to the Chinese, and Liang sealed it with a lethal return to roar back into the contest.
The decider started with the same breathtaking speed with the Indians up 4-2 after Liang was called for a service fault for height.
Back to the winning side, the Indians once again looked ominous, waltzing away with quick points to move to 10-3 before taking a four-point cushion at the final break.
Chirag was brilliant near the net, pouncing on anything marginally weak but things started changing after resumption as Wang came to the fore, dominating the front court and soon brought things at level at 12-12 with a flick serve.
Satwik seemed to falter a bit in the end as he conceded a few points on the flat pushes. On one such occasion, when Satwik went wide during a flat exchange, the Chinese moved into a 14-13 lead for the first time.
Liang, who had looked a bit subdued till now, also found his groove just in time as the Chinese moved to 19-16.
A disguised cross court drop shot gave four championship points to the Chinese. The Indians saved one before the Chinese shut the doors on their hopes.
It was yet another creditable performance from the Indian pair, which had claimed its maiden Super 1000 crown at the Indonesia Open last June.
Satwik and Chirag will next compete at the India Open Super 750 tournament starting in New Delhi on Tuesday.
