Indonesia Open 2011 Preview : Two Strongest Pairs of Danes

In the men's doubles department, the Danes will be sending their two strongest pairs. Mathias Boe & Carsten Mogensen (left) will play against the Japanese pair of Hirokatsu Hashimoto & Noriyasu Hirata. The Japanese pair has shown great form that made them champions at the India Super Series, the very first of Japan. The Danes would need to be extra cautious as the Japanese pair has a legendary coach, Park Joo Bong, who is a master tactician.


Meanwhile, the combination of Mads Conrads Petersen & Jonas Rasmussen is pitted against the upcoming men's doubles pair, Chai Biao & Guo Zhendong. The Danes will need to continue their great form to gain an upper hand over the Chinese pair, even if they have already won their first rematch against their opponents from the Malaysia Open final this year.


Three-time world champions Cai Yun & Fu Haifeng played a superb match at the Singapore Open to win against Alvent Yulianto Chandra & Hendra Aprida Gunawan. This will be a back to back encounter for both the pairs, who will meet in the first round of Indonesia Open.


Another pair making their post-Sudirman debut are Malaysia's Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong. They have their work cut out from them in the bottom half along with 2010 and 2009 champions Fang Chieh Min/Lee Sheng Mu and Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae respectively.


First round men's doubles matches of note :
Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen [1] (DEN) vs Hirokatsu Hashimoto/Noriyasu Hirata (JPN)
Chai Biao/Guo Zhendong [8] (CHN) vs Mads Conrads Petersen/Jonas Rasmussen (DEN)
