Re: What tips and techniques would you offer to a beginner player?

Is it better to use a 16x19 racket or an 18x20 racket? Any recommendations for either of these? I use a Babolat Pure Strike 18x20 racket. While I love it I find it a little heavy.

Re: Indian Badminton Thread ...

The selectors have named young stars Anmol Khrab, Ashmita Chaliha, and Tanvi Sharma who were part of the gold medal-winning team at the Badminton Asia Team Championships this year.

Re: BWF tournaments Mar 2024

I think GayaTree need to take a step back and see what is going wrong with them. It would be a shame if they struggle like this. Not sure if Matthias Boe coaches them.

Re: England in India 2024-25 : The Pataudi Trophy

Mankad played in an era when Indians couldn't field. So he got far fewer wickets than he should have as catches would be dropped. He batted without protective equipment and on uncovered pitches.

Re: BWF tournaments Mar 2024

Sindhu won her R2. I didn’t realize BWF streams matches for free on YouTube, so I had a chance to watch this match. A good comeback win. There was a moment when her opponent mounted a comeback in the 3rd game (12-13) but PVS played a solid game to stop her. French Open: R2: P V Sindhu (11) 13-21 21...
