MADATHIL RAMACHANDRAN Arjun

General
PARTNERSHIP
He and men's doubles partner Dhruv Kapila were placed together by former national doubles coach Flandy Limpele in 2019, after Arjun's previous partner Shlok Ramchandran stepped away from the sport. Arjun says Kapila is a more aggressive partner on the court. "Shlok is a little more consistent player, he wouldn't go for any risks, he is a bit more responsible on court. It's sometimes good but if you don't take risks it's a little tough to score points at a higher level. Dhruv, being a youngster, is not scared of taking risks, but both of us tend to go for risks and sometimes we end up on the wrong side. Still, that's not bad. If you look at Chirag Shetty and Satwik [Rankireddy], both of them have an aggressive style of play. I think that is something you require to jump to the next level. But Dhruv, being young, also loses his temper sometimes, once maturity comes [speaking in 2020], I think both of us will be a good pair." (sportstar, 24 Dec 2022, 28 May 2020)
