Commonwealth Games gold medalist Lakshya Sen will headline the Indian action on Day 3 of the BWF World Championships 2022 in Tokyo on Wednesday, August 24.

The ninth-seeded Sen will face World No. 74 Luis Enrique Penalver of Spain for a place in the pre-quarter-finals of this prestigious event. The 2021 bronze medalist had earlier begun his campaign with a 21-12, 21-11 win over Danish veteran Hans-Kristian Solberg Vittinghus.

Kidambi Srikanth, the silver medalist from the 2021 edition, and HS Prannoy will also be in action on Day 3. While 12th-seeded Srikanth takes on World No. 23 Zhao Jun Peng, Prannoy has an uphill task against second seed Kento Momota.

Commonwealth Games men's doubles champions Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty will also play their first match since their Birmingham glory. The seventh-seeded pair will kickstart their title challenge against the unheralded Guatemalan pair of Solis Jonathan and Anibal Marroquin.

On that note, here's a look at the August 24 schedule for the Indian contingent at the BWF World Championships 2022.
