Badminton: The China tower is collapsing?

Badminton:  The China tower is collapsing?

The Chinese dominance in badminton game field is fast collapsing as the top seeds continue to faultier.

China remained the best players of the shuttles in all formats, generally.  However, diplomatic adjustments seem to have made them lose the games as early as possible.

For years China has topped in singles as well as doubles badminton both males and females but of late,  it is badly failing especially in woman singe tournaments  where  the Chinese shutters  just lose, and one gets the impression that they deliberately throw away their shuttles in favor India.

One does not know if Chinese leadership cannot stand the Indian girls crying loud losing again and again to Chinese players or maybe some other reason for that. But Chinese players do play to their natural skills.

May be, India and China having issues with territories, have decided to solve them through match fixing in badminton in which India pins hopes. .

China would never give away an inch of land to India or any other nation.  So, Beijing is trying another route to achieve its territorial objective- badminton. India and China   seem to be ready and eager to settle their border dispute if China settles for losing shuttles and let Indian women shine for a year or so.

There is also an awful tendency in badminton:  Chinese women try to avoid Indian women.  The badminton tournament schedules are fixed in such ways so that the top Chinese players do not meet Indians. So that India is safe. Like in cricket even in badminton also ranks and records are not clean if not totally bogus like cricket.

It does not look like healthy competition.

If China possesses Indian lands it has to surrender them quickly and don’t spoil sports like badminton.  Let the Chinese shutters play their normal games.
