Indian men's doubles star pair Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty stunned top seed Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Rian Ardianto in straight games to sail into the men's doubles semifinals of the Indonesia Open World Tour Super 1000 event on Friday.

However, it was curtains for World Championship silver medallist Kidambi Srikanth who went down fighting to China's Li Shi Feng in the quarterfinals. The first Indian to take the court, Srikanth lost 14-21 21-14 12-21 in one hour and nine minutes against world No. 10 Feng. The win enabled Feng to restore parity on the head-to-head record against Srikanth, which stands at 1-1 now.
