Gooood Eveninggg!

Hello and a warm welcome to The Bridge's LIVE coverage of the 2026 All England Open Super 1000.

A day after Lakshya Sen's sensational win over world No 1 Shi Yu Qi, India's best bet to end their title drought in the tournament – Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty – will open their campaign.

It should be a pretty straightforward match for the former world No 1, with their opponents ranked 33rd in the world.

Also in action will be Ayush Shetty and Rohan Kapoor-Ruthvika Gadde later in the day.

Stay tuned for all the latest updates!
