The Sen brothers - Lakshya and Chirag - led the Indian charge in the Victor Denmark Masters International Challenge Badminton tournament in Esbjerg.

Top seed Lakshya Sen, unseeded Chirag Sen and fourth seed Subhankar Dey stormed into the men’s singles quarter-finals by notching up a couple of wins on Friday.

In the women’s singles, unseeded Aakarshi Kashyap and Sri Krishna Priya Kudaravalli caused upsets to clinch their respective spots in the last-eight stage.

Ashwini Ponnappa dazzled to reach quarters in two doubles events. The second-seeded pair of Ashwini Ponnappa and N Sikki Reddy will meet Natasja P Anthonisen and Clara Graversen of Denmark for a spot in the semi-finals on Saturday.

In mixed doubles, the crack combination of Dhruv Rawat and Ponnappa will have a tough task at hand as they run into top seeds Niclas Nohr and Amalie Magelund of Denmark.

In the men's doubles, the unseeded Indian duo of Krishna Prasad Garaga and Vishnu Vardhan Goud upset seeded players to seal their spots in the last eight. The young Indian pair will lock horns with fourth seeds Joel Eipe and Rasmus Kjaer of Denmark.
