India Open/Malaysia Open/Singapore Open - March 2019
3 weeks of major tournaments in Asia begins with India open this week. It is a weak field this week at India open with only 3 top 10 players in mens singles and 3 in womens singles.
Srikanth and Sindhu are #2 and #1 seeds effectively in mens and womens singles respectively although they are seeded 1 place lower as top seeds in both events withdrew at the last moment.
Hope our players can go all the way at the India open this week.

Prannoy and Subhankar Dey upset the seeds. Prannoy of course should have been ranked higher barring injuries but it was a really good top 10 win by Shubhankar. Srikanth had to really fight hard for his win and at one point was 11-17 down in the third game before making a comeback to win.
6 Indians are in second round.

Srikanth lost in the final
At India Open Super Series, New Delhi
[F] (3) KIDAMBI Srikanth (IND,7) l. (2) Viktor AXELSEN (DEN,4) 7-21 20-22
Srikanth made it to the final of a tournament after long time but still cannot put up any sort of challenge against top 5 players. It seems really a long time since he beat a top 5 player.

Re: India Open/Malaysia Open/Singapore Open - March 2019
True, if one looks at his performances against current top 6 since start of 2018-
#1 Momota - 0-7
#2 Shi Yuqi 1-0
#3 Chou 0-1
#4 Axelsen 0-1
#5 Chen Long- not played
#6 Son Wan Ho 0-1
So, it is a poor 1-10 with last win against Chinese Shi Yuqui coming in February 2019. He has a fair record against those below top 8 in that period. But, needs to desperately improve that record against top 6 to have any chance of a medal at Tokyo.

And only Srikanth advances to QF.
At Malayasia open - BWF 750
[R2] (8) KIDAMBI Srikanth (IND,7) d. Khosit PHETPRADAB (THA,18) 21-11 21-15
[R2] (5) PUSARLA V. Sindhu (IND,6) l. SUNG Ji Hyun (KOR,10) 18-21 7-21

Sindhu looks in bad form. She has hardly won anything in 2019 so far. Hope she turns it around soon.
Srikanth has been fairly consistent in winning against players ranked below top 10 in last 1 year but his tough test comes from QF onwards as it happens now.

Re: India Open/Malaysia Open/Singapore Open - March 2019
How long will Long Chen chain our players with his long chain? Is he not long overdue to be retired?

Re: India Open/Malaysia Open/Singapore Open - March 2019
Chen Long is 30. One of the oldest players in top 20 but still not at the stage of retiring. Are you confusing him with Lin Dan who is 35 ?
Anyway, this year so far he does not seem to be at his best. Sai Praneeth beat him last month in Swiss Open. Can Srikanth do likewise ?
