JAKARTA - Indonesia failed to win a ticket to the semifinals of the 2023 Team Asian Badminton Championship. The Red and White Team lost 1-3 to South Korea.

Appearing at the Dubai Exhibition Center, Saudi Arabia on Friday, February 17, Indonesia's appearance was opened by the men's singles, Chico Aura Dwi Wardoyo. Appearing to replace Anthony Ginting, Chico reaped satisfactory results.

Facing Lee Yun-gyu, Chico, who fought for 45 minutes, managed to win. His efforts ended after two games were immediately closed with a score of 21-17 and 21-16.

After Chico's appearance, Indonesia's hopes of performing even better rest on the women's singles performance represented by Putri Kusumawardani. Against Kim Ga-eun, Putri KW was forced to play fiercely.

These two women's singles went through a 66-minute match to ensure victory. Unfortunately, the good results did not take sides with Indonesia. Putri KW's struggle ended in defeats 17-21, 21-14 and 12-21.

In the third match, Indonesia rests on Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian. Unfortunately, the world number one doubles failed to contribute points.

Fajar/Rian surprisingly lost two straight games to representatives of South Korea with a score of 21-16, 13-21 and 16-21. The results of the 59-minute match left Merah Putih behind 1-2 from the opponent.

Indonesia's hope then rests on the shoulders of Apriyani Rahayu/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti. The Indonesian women's doubles faced Baek Ha-naa/Lee So-hee in the fourth party.

Namin, Apriyani Rahayu's fierce performance/Siti Fadia at this moment still has not produced satisfactory results. Apriyani/Fadia lost in two games with a score of 14-21 and 9-21 which made the position 1-3 for Korean victory.

With this result, the closing match of Antada Rinov Rivaldy/Pitha Haningtyas against Kim Young-hyuk/Le Yu-lim in the mixed doubles sector was not played. Korea also qualified for the semifinals.
