Indonesia Masters 2023 Telecast Channel: Where to watch and live streaming details in India
The Indian contingent, who will be without PV Sindhu, will look to bounce back to form at the Indonesia Masters 2023, a Super 500 tournament scheduled to take place in Jakarta, Indonesia, from January 24-29.
Indian shuttlers failed to impress in the first-ever Super 750 edition of the India Open in New Delhi last week. None of the homegrown players managed to breach the second-round hurdle in a major disappointment for the Indian badminton brigade in an Olympic qualifying year.
The Indonesia Masters will give them a chance at redemption. However, the draws present some early dangers for India's top stars.
Lakshya Sen, seeded seventh in men's singles at this tournament, will face Malaysia Open runner-up Kodai Naraoka in the first round. Eighth seed and 2014 champion HS Prannoy will take on World No. 17 Kanta Tsuneyama in his opener. Former World No. 1 Kidambi Srikanth has local hopes and World No. 26 Shesar Hiren Rhustavito first up.
Back to one of the favourite places in the circuit !
Indonesiaaaaaaa 🇮🇩
Looking forward to a good week of badminton in Istora 👌

On the women's side, Saina Nehwal made it to the second round of the India Open last week. She will hope to build on it as she squares off against the 32nd-ranked Pai Yu Po at a tournament she won in 2019.
India's premier men's doubles pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty are not in action this week. The duo had to withdraw from their second-round match at the India Open after Satwik pulled his left hip adductor muscle.
