Satwiksairaj and Chirag say they have the game to beat anyone in the world

‘The strong point is our attack’

Chirag Shetty and R. Satwiksairaj are being tipped as medal hopes in men’s doubles at the Olympics, given the kind of reputation they have built up in the recent past with their attacking game. What exactly does the World No.10 ranked pair think about the Olympics? “Mathias Boe’s smart training has been really beneficial to us. Short duration sessions, lesser breaks, more focused and not too hard sessions but really quality sessions,” said 20-year-old Satwiksairaj. “Thanks to Boe, we are playing much better, more confidently. We will have to see how it shapes up in the Olympics. I feel the strong points are our attack. Definitely, we have changed our game a bit for the good. We will have to see how they work against the opponents. A very good communication channel between us is our strength,” he said.
