However, the Adcocks remain one place higher in the BWF rankings than Faisal and Widjaja, in sixth place.

Second and third places in the BWF rankings are filled by the Chinese pairs of Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong, and Wang Yilu and Huang Dongping.

Having broken into the BWF top ten, Widjaja and Faizal are expected to feature in the running for the medal placings at the forthcoming 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.?
