if Sonny is still nursing his injury, can PBSI call Alamsyah Yunus to sub in. He has a never-die fighting spirit. He just won the Malaysian GPG.
The knock-out stage drawing is really crucial for INA team as most likely INA will be out as runner-up group 1A as an impact being grouped with hot-fave CHN. Hopefully INA will not face CHN once again too early in QF...

The strongest team that INA could make is : MS : Tommy WS : Lindaweni She could spring surprise to anyone.. remember the time when she beat WYH in 2 games recently, not to mention she is in the top 15 now. MD : Hendra/Ahsan This will probably the department that INA want to steal point at. WD : Greysia/Nitya Most of INA fans are wishing they will be back as a pair again. They could beat any pair (except WXL/YY) XD : Towi/Butet They should secure 1 point for INA.
