SENDAI (JAPAN): Having achieved its first target of reaching the quarterfinals, India would go full throttle against Denmark when it takes on the European powerhouse for a place in the semifinals of the World men's badminton championship for Thomas Cup here on Wednesday. It would be an uphill task for India to pull off an upset win against Denmark, which has the likes of World No. 3 Peter Gade, No. 7 Kenneth Jonassen and No. 10 Christian Neils. In doubles also Denmark has a formidable line-up with the top-ranked pair of Jons Erikson and Martin Hansen in its ranks along with Mathias Boe and Carsten Mogensen, the World No. 4 duo. India managed to edge past Germany 3-2 after losing to defending champion China in the league stage and then trounced New Zealand 3-0 to make it to the last eight. Denmark, on the other hand, made a direct entry into the quarterfinals after blanking South Africa and Japan 5-0. — PTI
