Spot on. Vimal is straightforward and his language easily comes across as harsh. First comments on Flandy and now this.
frankly, i like vimal's straightforward tone. there's nothing wrong with cutting straight to the truth as you see it.

Srikanth has the real chance to take the Denmark title now. Nobody is there to stop him if he plays like before. Again , I am looking forward to see Lakshya Sen playing. Hope to see him in later stages of the tournament.
CTC in second round for Kidambi. Dont think he'll go past him. Excited to see how Lakshya will do. He has a good match up against Christo and if he wins, he'll face either HKV or Kanta Tsuneyama.
@Baddyforall and @Baddie lover you guys are too optimistic, how can you expect him to win title or reach round3. First he should overcome Toby and S Dey which is hard for him given his exponential decay in performance since 2018. Upper half seems bit easy. Also I thought Jan O announced retirement

Indian Doubles show the way as singles players struggle. They still need another 3-4 months to get their rhythm and sharper attack. A good start after a long break. Link: https://bwfworldtour.bwfbadminton.c...mework-in-lockdown-helps-get-chemistry-right/
Mathias Boe to coach Indian Doubles players. Hoping he helps Satwik/Chirag win tournaments and medals. Link: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com...dy-and-chirag-shetty/articleshow/80588074.cms
Mathias Boe is hired under TOPS which means his appointment is confirmed till the Olympics. SAI would need to give him a regular contract to continue beyond that.
Its good they hired Boe, foreign coaches are useful since India dont have so many strong retired MD players to become coaches
Has Mathias Boe become men's doubles coach for the Indian team? Saw Wang Chi Lin's comment on his post... Edit: Nevermind,.. Just saw the posts above.
Indonesian association PBSI forced Chiristie to refrain from participating in German and Swiss open so that he can use that time to reflect on and work on his game, this very impressive move by PBSI, every player most work hard and no one is safe even someone who won Asian Games gold. I don't know why BAI provides free travel passes to Sikki and other less than mediocre players, no player should feel safe even Sindhu, Saina, KS. At the highest level mediocrity shouldn't be an option.
