Tokyo-bound duo hope to get more match-play


PETALING JAYA: Malaysia will most likely be represented by two shuttlers when para badminton makes its debut at the Tokyo Paralympics from Aug 24-Sept 5.

As it stands, six-time world champion Cheah Liek Hou will qualify for the SU5 men’s singles (impairment in upper body) category while Didin Taresoh (pic) is set to make the cut in the SS6 men’s singles (short stature).
