India has been struggling in the mixed doubles category in recent times. However, with the formidable pairing of Rankireddy and Ashwini Ponnappa, as well as the potential combination of Tanisha Crasto and Sai Pratheek, India has a chance to shine in this category as well. Rankireddy and Shetty’s recent Badminton Asia Championships title and Jolly and Pullela’s strong performance at the All England tournament have undoubtedly boosted the team’s confidence.

Malaysia, on the other hand, boasts a team with several strong mixed doubles players and pairs like Goh Soon Huat/Lai Shevon Jemie, Tan Kian Meng/Lai Pei Jing, Chen Tang Jie/Toh Ee Wei, Hoo Pang Ron/Teoh Mei Xing, and Valeree Siow. However, they face some challenges in the women’s singles category with Goh Jin Wei not having the best performances recently. Nonetheless, their other departments, including men’s singles, men’s doubles, and women’s doubles, are well-equipped with talented players.
Chinese Taipei has reliable singles players like Chou Tien Chen and Tai Tzu Ying, as well as strong men’s doubles pairs. However, the women’s and mixed doubles categories are where other teams can potentially find opportunities. The top women’s pairs from Chinese Taipei have had modest results in recent months, and the likely mixed doubles combination of Yang Po-Hsuan and Hu Ling Fang is yet to make a significant impact.
Australia may be considered underdogs in this group, but they are determined to make an impression. Nathan Tang and Tiffany Ho face tough competition in the singles categories, while Gronya Somerville will be juggling between the mixed doubles with Kenneth Zhe Hooi Choo and the women’s doubles with Kaitlyn Ea.
The matches in Group C are expected to be intense and exciting, with each team aiming to prove their worth. Keep an eye on the TotalEnergies BWF Sudirman Cup Finals 2023 in Suzhou as these teams battle it out for glory.
