JAKARTA - The pair Praveen Jordan/Melati Daeva Oktavianti stepped into the second round of the 2023 Asian Badminton Championships. They qualified after winning two straight games 21-17, 21-16 over Japan's mixed doubles, Kyohei Yamashita/Naru Shinoya, Tuesday, April 25.
Furthermore, Praveen/Melati will meet with Malaysian mixed doubles, Chen Tang Jie/Toh Ee Wei. It is believed that this party will be tough.
Moreover, their potential opponent in the second half was a student from former Praveen/Melati coach while still in the PBSI Cipayung National Training Center.
Praveen/Melati admitted that they would study the pattern of the opponent's game through video recordings as one of their strategies.
"Our opponent in the round of 16, the coach is Om K (Nova Widianto). He has memorized us very well, so it must be prepared later from technical and non-technical," said Melati, as quoted from Antara.
Meanwhile, Praveen said his current condition had improved after suffering a prolonged injury since last year. Based on the feeling he felt, his performance continued to improve positively.
"I can be said that the day is getting better, the progress seems to continue to rise and the problem will decrease after the injury. At the beginning, I was still afraid but the more comfortable I got here," concluded Praveen.
