JAKARTA - Indonesian men's doubles, Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Marthin, stepped into the second round of All England 2023 by ending the bad record of the Malaysian pair, Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik.

Leo/Daniel beat the Malaysian men's doubles with a score of 21-18, 14-21, and 21-13 on Thursday, March 16, early morning WIB. This is a victory

This is Leo/Daniel's first win over Aaron/Soh. In the previous four meetings, The Babies had a record of four defeats.

"In the previous four meetings we lost continuously, but today we can win. Of course this can make us more confident, but we shouldn't be too happy. We have to refocus on the next match," Leo said after the match.

Leo/Daniel really learned from the bad experience before. So it seems that the Indonesian pair is reluctant to repeat the same mistake.

Before facing the 2022 world champion, the Indonesian duo studied the pattern of his previous opponent's game. An aggressive pattern is their choice to apply against Aaron/Soh.

"We are trying to improve and learn what happened in previous meetings, and we are implementing it in today's match. We have a lot of attacking strategies and don't do a lot of defense," Leo explained, as reported by Antara.

The Babies opened the match actively attacking, resulting in the first advantage of the initial game. But the Babies actually lost control of the game in the second game due to difficulties in adapting to the field after exchanging positions.

"In the second game we had a little problem on the pitch because our side won the wind, while the opponent on the side lost the wind. They became better at managing the game while we made a lot of mistakes ourselves," said Daniel.

After returning to its original position in the third game, Leo/Daniel's game became aggressive again by continuing to suppress the world number two men's doubles defense.

"It's true, said Leo, we continue to try to play attacking. In the third game we were able to take the lead, so we tried to take advantage of the situation by continuing to press," Daniel added.

Apart from Aaron/Soh's threat, The Babies finally advanced to the last 16 of the BWF Super 1000 tournament. They also hope to qualify as far as possible in the world's oldest badminton tournament.

"Hopefully we want to go as far as possible, but we have to focus on one game after one game. We must continue to motivate ourselves, we must not be complacent. Every player has the same opportunity, only who is the most ready on the field," concluded Daniel.
