Jakarta, Jan 9 (IANS) Indonesia hopes it can send two men's doubles pairs to the badminton event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games.
Men's doubles coach Herry Iman Pierngadi said they expect more pairs to emerge with similar level with current World No.10 Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo and Marcus Fernaldi, reports Xinhua news agency.
