Badminton Asia Team Championships 2016

Yes, that's true. I think Chinese WD will get 2 points. Japanese WS will win 2nd and 3rd singles. So it depends on the result of WSX vs Nozomi.

No no that's not what I think!! Actually Chen Yufei and even HBJ are improving tremendously.. +AY and MM are of colour (except MM vs SN match Minatsu hasn't done much)..
But if you consider only the current form its heavily probable that Nozomi will def WSX..
However, WSX is mentally vehement + this is her chance to RIO she won't give anything less than her best
 
This Thai Women team looks so week.. No NJ(Nichaon), PB(Porntip), sapsiree, Conchuwong, Kunchala
They have few new names.. Is this the confirmed entry?

Thai team only has 3 men and 4 women? Obviously not the complete roster. Unless all the 3 WS has to play WD also and 1 Thai lady will also play in the men team as the 2nd MD.
 
i bet LCW will be fielded in the mens team for this tournament, but will not be in the Thomas/Uber Cups Finals in May if MAS team qualified...

Mind to clarify why you make this assumption? Did you heard from rumour or purely based on your own gut feeling?

INDONESIA squad => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...id=B1A7006D-7CB5-4080-9058-430AACDD0962&cid=4

Men's team : Tommy Sugiarto, Ihsan Maulana Mustofa, Anthony Ginting, Jonatan Christie, Mohammad Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan, Angga Pratama/Ricky Karanda Suwardi, Berry Angriawan/Ryan Agung Saputra

Women's team : Lindaweni Fanetri, Maria Febe Kusumastuti, Fitriani, Gregoria Mariska, Greysia Polii/Nitya Krishinda Maheswari, Anggia Shitta Awanda/Ni Ketut Mahadewi Istirani, Della Destiara Haris/Rosyita Eka Putri Sari.

Indonesia have line-up their best Men's team
 
Will be interested to see if the Japanese ladies be able to beat the Chinese B team. I think it will be 50:50.

Based on their line-up, Japan have the greatest chance to win Uber Cup in May'16, but for their men's line-up MS2 & MS3 are their weakest link.

Online news from Malaysia tabloid, LCW and other Olympic-bound shuttlers like Goh V-Shem and Tan Wee Kiong might not feature in Asia Team Championships & Thomas Cup.

Hehe yeah... I am not sure about the Thai ladies but if required Chen Yufei, YU Yang, HBJ and Li Han can play in the men team without recognition..

No CWF in the squad?
 
The Finals, to be held in Kunshan, China, from May 15-22, will feature 16 teams – hosts China; defending champions Japan; four from Asia; four from Europe; one each from Africa, Oceania and Pan-America; and three more based on their world ranking.

And Malaysia should have no problems qualifying based on their world No. 6 team ranking – courtesy of Chong Wei and the men’s pairs of Goh V Shem-Tan Wee Kiong (No. 15) and Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong (No. 18).

The other teams ranked ahead of Malaysia are China, Japan, Indonesia, South Korea and Denmark.

no worry..Malaysia can still qualify eventhough not in top 4 position for qualifying..

None of them is in the MAS squad. But I think they will have no problem for qualifying, if totally 6 Asian countries are in.
