Satwik–Chirag Lead India’s Charge At Indonesia Open 2026 After Singapore Triumph

The Indonesia Open 2026 , a prestigious BWF Super 1000 tournament , begins on Tuesday in Jakarta, with Indian shuttlers entering the event on the back of an encouraging performance at the Singapore Open last week.

For viewers in India, the live streaming will be available on the BWF TV YouTube channel . However, no official television broadcast partner has been announced yet for live telecast in the country.

A major spotlight will be on men’s doubles pair Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty , who head to Jakarta after ending a long title drought by winning the Singapore Open. The Asian Games champions will look to build on that momentum and strengthen their standing on the World Tour.

In women’s singles, PV Sindhu showed signs of returning to form last week with notable wins over higher-ranked opponents before bowing out in the quarter-finals. Now ranked world No. 12, she could face a tough draw, potentially meeting Olympic champion An Se-young early in the competition.

India’s challenge in men’s singles will also be led by HS Prannoy , who registered a significant upset over Jonatan Christie in Singapore, alongside Lakshya Sen , who reached the quarter-finals and continues to show consistency at the top level. Youngster Ayush Shetty and former national champion Kidambi Srikanth are also part of the squad.

In women’s singles, Unnati Hooda and Malvika Bansod will aim to make deeper runs in a competitive draw.

India’s doubles and mixed doubles contingent also carries expectations. The men’s doubles pair MR Arjun and Hariharan Amsakarunan join Satwik–Chirag, while women’s doubles duo Treesa Jolly / Gayatri Gopichand return to World Tour action after a break due to injury recovery.

In mixed doubles, Dhruv Kapila / Tanisha Crasto will aim to continue their strong form after a semi-final finish in Singapore, while Rohan Kapoor and Ruthvika Shivani Gadde complete India’s challenge.

With strong recent performances and rising confidence , India enters the Jakarta event hoping to convert momentum into deeper runs at one of badminton’s most competitive tournaments.
