Almost near top-10 for Kashyap. He could have used a better performance at the Korea Open to get into the top-10, but not to be as he lost a close match to Yu Hun (#9)...

Who ever your choice is, as long as the both players can do a very competitive match will be much appreciated than choosing great players but can handled position for finals.

P.V. Sindhu is back in top 10 this week at no.10.

These are the rankings of Indian players in top 50 in world rankings-

Mens singles

•14: Parupalli Kashyap
•24: R.M.V.Gurusaidutt
•26: Ajay Jayaram
•32: K.Srikanth
•34: Anand Pawar
•39: Sai Praneeth
•42: H.S Prannoy
•43: Sourabh Varma

Womens singles

•4: Saina Nehwal
•10: P.V.Sindhu

Mens doubles

•36: Pranaav Jerry Chopra and Akshay Dewalkar
•42: Arun Vishu and Tarun Kona

Womens doubles

•28: Ashwini Ponnappa and Pradnya Gadre
•46: Aparna Balan and Siki Reddy

Mixed doubles

•33: Tarun Kona and Ashwini Ponnappa
•45: Arun Vishnu and Aparna Balan

We are seeing great depth on mens side now with 8 players in top 50 but we need a couple of them to go to top 10 consistently like Saina & Sindhu. Srikanth seems to be the fastest mover upwards.

We need to get something going in doubles. Here, we are worse off then singles unlike tennis.

Yes, we need to improve in doubles to improve our performance in team events such as the Thomas/Uber cups.

Still, she may indeed be better than Saina.

I thought this was conclusively proven to be wrong at present in the Indian Badminton League (or whatever it was called).

The top levels of individual sports are non-transitive (is that the right word?). A beats B & B beats C doesn't ensure that A is better than C.

Sindhu may continue to get better results against the legion of Wangs than Saina does, while continuing to lose mano-a-mano (or womano-a-womano I suppose).
