BPS State Badminton Ranking Tournament 2026

Akshat Dodiya’s tournament began with a 30–11 singles win over Harsheet Chari, completed in 10 minutes on 7 August. He took both games 15–4, 15–7, winning 21 of 29 rallies on his serve and building an eight-rally streak.

The qualifying start led into the U11 Boys’ Singles main draw, where Shloke Utagi beat Dodiya 15–9, 15–6. The match lasted 13 minutes and followed immediately from its scheduled 4:45 pm start. Dodiya won more rallies on receive than serve in this match, taking 11 of 30 receiving rallies compared with four of 15 on serve, but the deficit remained across both games.

Doubles added a second event thread. With partner unnamed in the dossier, Dodiya’s pair lost 15–2, 15–3 to Mahipal Sinh Parmar and Priyansh Sawant Dessai in 13 minutes on 8 August. The pair won five points in total, including four of 30 receiving rallies. This was not a one-day rush: the doubles match came the following day, with a recorded 31-minute rest gap from the singles match.

Across the three completed matches, Dodiya spent 36 minutes on court, won 50 points and lost 71, and never reached a deciding game. One pattern stands out: his singles serve was productive overall, with 25 wins from 44 attempts, while doubles produced no wins from two recorded serves. His rally detail is complete for all three matches, giving the campaign a clear shape: a sharp opening win, a main-draw singles exit, and a straight-set doubles defeat.
