Indonesian pair Tantowi Ahmad and Liliyana Natsir aim to win their fourth straight mixed doubles title at the Yonex All England Super Series Premier 2015 slated for March 3-8 in Birmingham.

The pair have dominated the mixed doubles event at the All England Badminton championships over the past three years.

"Certainly, our target is to enter the final. (But) we expect to win the title," Liliyana said on Wednesday.

She said that they would focus at the beginning of the tournament because it was vulnerable.
