Bella or Hera has chance to lift the title here... but stil got Fu Mingtian here. Glad to see Setyana Mapassa on this tourney.. Marcus/Agri or Christopher/Andrei has bright chance too.. let's see how consistent is Andrei/Christopher.. i will cheer them!
We can see many Pelatnas's newcomer playing here.. and not so much change on the combination.. mostly still with their respective regular partner. Anggia Shitta/Shella Devi Aulia is seeded #5 here.. hope the WJC runner up will have good result here.. Deariska is partnered with Ririn.. will it become good combination? I think Ririn is good stuff for WD.. not so tall.. but, quite agile. While Dea with her tall body is ready to give a big smash.. How far can Melvira/Khaeriah progress..? All the best to these newcomer in Pelatnas! -------------------------- oppsss... don't forget Aris Budiharti/Dian Fitriani.. this young has done quite well in WD open division in national circuit.. eventhough they are not in pelatnas
Good. Hafiz Faisal partnered with Pia Zebadiah. Will be a valuable experience for Hafiz(just count it as preparation towards AJC/WJC.. The WJC champion Alfian Eko/Gloria Emanuelle.. INA's mixed double prospect in few years coming.. will cheer hard for them in this tourney..! While another talent Annisa Saufika will partnered with more experience player Rizky.. Putra/Aris also here...

little bit surprise there is no della/suci, jenna/komala, tiara/gebby, afiat/rendy, lucky apri on that list...
PBSI policy: those 2nd layer players will be sent to GP/GPG levels. IC tourneys are for the new recruits.
That's a dumb policy... It is much better to adjust the curriculum of a player or pair according to their progress to date. Thus, some pairs who are considered '2nd layer' yet never won any IC, could be sent to an IC to give them small glory. While some new recruits who are at the bottom tier of their practice group, don't even go to IC, but play in Sirnas and IS first...
My opinion on PBSI's decision to send tons of players to the Vietnam IC - what a big waste of money! It's more like an incentive tour with no specific target to achieve and just bring the whole Pratama team there! I thought they should be more selective in choosing which players to go to Vietnam. Players like Jena Gozali/Komala Dewi and Riky Widianto/Richie Puspita Dili SHOULD GO as it's a chance for them to win a title in there!
If I were to select those players, I will only send: MS - Riyanto Subagja, Evert Sukamta, Shesar Hiren Rhustavito, Arief Gifar Ramadhan, Wisnu Yuli Prasetyo, Panji Akbar Sudrajat WS - Bellaetrix Manuputty, Hera Desi Ana Rachmawati, Elizabeth Purwaningtyas, Renna Suwarno MD - Agripinna Prima Rahmanto Putra/Marcus Fernaldi Gideon, Mohd Ulinnuha/Ricky Karanda Suwardi, Andrei Adistia/Christopher Rusdianto, Berry Angriawan/Rahmat Adianto WD - Jenna Gozali/Komala Dewi, Tiara Rosalia Nuraidah/Gebby Ristiyani Imawan, Anggia Shitta Awanda/Shella Devi Aulia XD - Riky Widianto/Richie Puspita Dili, Irfan Fadhilah/Wenni Anggraini, Alfian Eko Prasetya/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja At most 30 players and that is already quite a lot. The extra players PBSI send: Ronald Alexander/Selvanus Geh, Wahyu Nayaka/Ade Yusuf, Mohd Rizky Dellynugraha/Annisa Saufika, Khaeriah Rosmini/Melvira Oklamona, Deariska Putri Medita/Ririn Amelia, Yenni Asmarani (not sure if she's still in Pelatnas), Milicent Wiranto, Mazziyah Nadhir, Siswanto, Andre Marteen (not sure if he's still in Pelatnas). That's already 15 players!
Here's M/Q Report version 2 : http://www.badmintonasia.org/attach...m International Challenge 2012 - M&Q (V2).xls The draw will be conducted by BAC on 20th March 2012.
As bad as this sounds right now I hope 2 more players from main draw withdraw so that I will be bumped up from qualification to main draw, don't really feel like flying all that way to be put into qualification =/
