00:00Women's doubles there's still a lot of rotation that happens and get to use a lot of the court which I really like

00:06I get to play more badminton

00:11I mean, we are part of the women's doubles group. So we do train together

00:15Okay, so what are the

00:17What are the positives you see in them?

00:19Because you know, they're just coming up

00:23They look up to you

00:25They have better facilities

00:27When compared to when you all started

00:31I mean, there isn't any point comparing the past

00:33And I would say currently

00:35The youngsters do have a lot going for them

00:37Which is very good to see

00:39In terms of sponsorship

00:41In terms of support

00:43In terms of funding

00:45In terms of training

00:47So everything is

00:49So it makes a huge difference

00:51I mean, we do have players who are doing well

00:53But like I said earlier, it would be great if we had

00:55More than just one pair each event

00:57And that's what I feel like as a nation

00:59When you really need to strive to do

01:01To get more pairs

01:09Well, I've played against her

01:11Last week at Malaysia Open pre-quarters

01:13And I lost 18-21, 11-21

01:15So I think less than a week I've made quite some progress

01:17And it's difficult to gain

01:19That much of margin against the current world number four

01:21In less than a week

01:24So I think I've done pretty well

01:26But a few more points needed to work on

01:28But I'm overall happy with the performance

01:30And I would like to thank the wonderful crowd

01:32That was there today

01:34It was amazing to play on home soil

01:36And all the best to all the youngsters who were there

01:38And the unforced errors coming in

01:40After the first game you started off well

01:42Then in the second game

01:44There was a backstroke

01:46You could have killed

01:48One backhand shot we really loved

01:50Was a one backhand return

01:52That could have led to better results

01:54Do you feel that?

01:56I think so, yes

01:58A few unforced errors were there

02:00But I think I found it a bit difficult

02:02To adjust to the condition from the second side

02:04And I could see that many other players as well

02:06Were facing the same issue

02:08That one of the games in the three games

02:10Was quite one-sided

02:12So even though I was trailing in the second game

02:14I did very well to come back

02:16But somehow things could not work

02:18But I definitely have a great learning lesson

02:20So next time I play against her

02:22I will make the necessary corrections

02:24Do you think you took out a bit more time

02:26For training here

02:28When coming to India

02:30Before the tournament

02:32We saw you training

02:34Day before when you were there

02:36In the main court

02:38Do you think that a lot more time is required

02:40Before such tournaments

02:42To get used to the conditions

02:44A day or so

02:46I think the time I got was quite sufficient

02:49As we progress into the tournament

02:51The lighting is different, the crowd is different

02:53So it makes certain changes

02:55I wouldn't say that I would require more time

02:57But just that

02:59I need to get myself more adaptable

03:01To the situation

03:03How do you see it now

03:05You will get some time off now

03:07You will take some rest

03:09You will analyse, you will regroup

03:11How do you see the road ahead

03:13The road ahead is quite tough, quite steep

03:15But as I have done pretty well

03:17I have been giving quite consistent performances

03:19Which has helped me raise my ranking

03:21From late 40s to 27

03:23That was updated yesterday

03:25So I think I am going to continue the same momentum

03:27It's a lot of hard work ahead

03:29But I have qualified for the All England

03:31And I am in the race

03:33To qualify for the World Championships as well

03:35So 2025

03:37Is going to be packed with major tournaments

03:39And I am looking forward to good solid performances

03:41Can we expect a headline

03:43Malviya Kapil Scott

03:45Yes

03:47You can

03:49Thank you so much
