Badminton Asia Championships 2025 Live Streaming: Top Seeds, Indians In Action, Prize Money - All You Need To Know

Indian shuttlers will be looking to reset their campaign in Ningbo, China, after a shaky start to the season.

Lakshya Sen, HS Prannoy, and PV Sindhu will lead the charge, hoping to find rhythm and results.

In men’s singles, HS Prannoy has a tough opener lined up against China’s Lu Guang Zu, while Lakshya Sen begins his campaign against Chia Hao Lee from Chinese Taipei. Priyanshu Rajawat is set to clash with Thailand’s Kantaphon Wangcharoen.

On the other hand, PV Sindhu starts her women’s singles campaign against Indonesia’s Ester Nurumi Tri Wardoyo, looking to hit the ground running. Malvika Bansod will face a stiff challenge in China’s Fang Jie Gao shaping up to be a tricky opener.

Aakarshi Kashyap has a daunting task against second seed Han Yue of China, while youngster Anupama Upadhyaya is up against Thailand’s seasoned campaigner Ratchanok Intanon.

But India will miss two of their top doubles pairs, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty in men’s, and Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand in women’s, both of whom have pulled out recently.
