BWF World Championships: India’s top-ranked men’s doubles pair, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty, produced a commanding display to march into the Round of 16 at the BWF World Championships 2025. The ninth-seeded duo overcame Chinese Taipei’s Liu Kuang Heng and Yang Po Han 22-20, 21-13 in a 43-minute battle at the Adidas Arena in Paris.

They now face a stern test against sixth seeds Liang Wei Keng and Wang Chang of China in what promises to be a blockbuster clash.

It turned out to be a strong day for Indian shuttlers, with PV Sindhu showing her trademark resilience to down Malaysia’s Karupathevan Letshanaa 21-19, 21-15 in a women’s singles Round of 32 contest.
