Japan Masters: Priyanshu, Lakshya and Prannoy in action

Youngster Priyanshu Rajawat, Lakshya Sen and HS Prannoy will look to get their rhythm back at the Japan Masters. They will be playing in the first round of the Super 500 tournament. 

Priyanshu will have his task cut out against Lin Chun-Yi, while Prannoy will face off against Lee Cheuk Yiu of Hong Kong. 

Lakshya, on the other hand, has a tough task in hand as he faces world no. 5 and local favourite Kodai Naraoka. 

However, the Indian shuttlers will be no pushovers as they are all dogged rivals now.
