Prannoy and Treesa-Gayatri are currently part of the Indian team which is playing in the Sudirman Cup in China.
Prannoy had earlier reached the quarterfinals of the Badminton Asia Championships earlier in April, but his tournament was cut short due to injury.
Treesa and Gayatri had defeated the Indonesian duo of Lanny Tria Mayasari and Ribika Sugiarto 17-21, 21-17, 21-18 in their round of 32 match of the Asian Championships, but pulled out of the tournament due to an injury. (ANI)
