Shankar hopes Sri Lanka will shine


AMIDST all the glitz and glamour that accompanies the top seeded teams, Sri Lanka arrived in Kuala Lumpur for the Sudirman Cup quietly with their Malaysian coach Shankar Annamalai.

Shankar hopes that not being in the spotlight will spur them to win Group A of Division Three, which would then considerably help their team’s ranking in the world. They are currently ranked 27th.
