Indian badminton teams were on Wednesday handed comfortable draws in the rescheduled Thomas and Uber Cup Finals, slated to be held between October 9 and 17 at Aarhus, Denmark.

The Indian men’s team has been clubbed alongside defending champions China and minnows Netherlands and Tahiti in Group C, while the women’s side will be challenged by last edition runners-up Thailand, Spain and Scotland in Group B. The draw ceremony was held by the game’s governing body BWF at Kuala Lumpur. The top two teams in each group at the end of the group stage will make it to the knock-out round. The Indian men’s and women’s teams had failed to reach the knockout stage in the last edition in 2018.
