Badminton’s chief national coach Pullela Gopichand is confident that PV Sindhu will be back in rhythm by the time Tokyo Olympic Games come calling. But I am confident as the chief national coach that with the support team we have, we would be able to bring her back to form before Tokyo Olympics,” Gopichand told The Telegraph on Friday. “In 2016, Sindhu was an unknown entity and now she will be going to Tokyo as the world champion. She also would have extra pressure as the defending silver medal winner... We will need to sort out these issues. Gopichand, however, is bullish about the men’s doubles duo of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty.
