[Noridayu]

Now 2-1. Interval due to shuttlecock issue.

[eaglehelang]

Gd Sports commentator said CCM/CCe lost steam compared to their great play in 1st set.

[robin7]

XZB/GZD deserve the title. Congratulations to them!

Great effort by CCE/CCM for making it to the finals.

[jasonmarc]

Good show by...CCM/CCE...not bad for a semi retired pair...

[vching]

damn.... oh well, Chan and Chew fought well!

[Noridayu]

I believe that the next match will be interesting as Indian supporters will shout for him. See whether Bonsak can win him.

[robin7]

OMG, the podium is so small. They winners have to queue up on the podium.

[Noridayu]

Now, Prize presentation.Gd to see them at the podium receiving awards. They received $ 4500 US dollars.

[eaglehelang]

Good show by...CCM/CCE...not bad for a semi retired pair...

Not semi retired yet lah, veterans that just got back together. CCM's sponsorship with Victor is for 2 years = 2008 & 2009. They need to improve stamina loh. CCE with the young Hong didnt get past early rounds

But China 2nd MD has improved

[zqloy]

CCE/CCM should hv taken the 2nd set, but lost focus instead when they r leading. Well, looks like the only Malaysian players capable of taking titles are still LCW, KKK/TBH. The others, what should i say? Perhaps they r too contended being the runnerup?

[Noridayu]

Another entertainment. I hope that in ABC not much entertainment as we want to see the live action matches not entertainment. It is better that they upgrade it to tournament live score instead on wasting money on the entertainment.

[Noridayu]

The Indian fans start to cheer for their heroes.

[eaglehelang]

CCE/CCM should hv taken the 2nd set, but lost focus instead when they r leading. Well, looks like the only Malaysian players capable of taking titles are still LCW, KKK/TBH. The others, what should i say? Perhaps they r too contended being the runnerup?

This is only CCM/CCE's 3rd tourney after coming back together. If you count GP titles, Lee TS had also won a few in 2007. We'll see more action from CCM/CCE in future.

[Noridayu]

The crowds start to make noise. India leads 1-0.

[Noridayu]

Score level at 1 all. Thai leads 2-1.

[eaglehelang]

China see Xie/Guo's win yesterday against Lee/Jung as a bigger thing as Lee/Jung are reigning AE & Swiss champs, and higher ranked. + Lee/Jung will be in OG.

Commentator said Xie/Guo were not used to CCM/CCE game plan in 1st set, 2nd set CCM/CCE stamina dropped, a lot of errors and rubber set, Xie/Guo maintained good play. Guest coach said CCM/CCE's defense & skills very good but could not maintain throughout the match.

[Noridayu]

Now level at 2 all. Thai leads 4-2.

[samuel882]

Naturally they wouldnt focus on CCM/CCE now, before OG, CCM/CCE not goin OG. CCM/CCE need to improve their stamina?

[samuel882]

You also support the 2 mighties besides Msia pairs?
yes, indeed i have written an article about them in China Open Thread last year...:)

[Noridayu]

Now the score is 7-6.Thai leads 8-6. The stadium is silent now.

[samuel882]

[vching]

Boonsak is sponsored by our PAW group - SCG :D :D :D

[Noridayu]

Thai leads 9-6. Now,7-9. Now,8-9. Another unforced errors by Bonsak.

[Louisa]

Boonsak, jia you.......

[Noridayu]

The score now 11-8 to Boonsak.

[limsy]

chan-chew are doing more than expectation...ljj/hjm,japanese pairs and legendary tony and candra was lost to them...it's good enough...

the reason i think that they will lose is because...
1,chew choon eng are so wanted to win the title,this cause him to lose focus on his main weapon,defence...
2,both pairs are commited many error,but malaysian are making more than the chinese...
3,chan-chew serves are too easy to read...when they doing short serves,they always serves to only one direction with same speed...

if they are under rexy again,but not in elite squad(so,they will be no pressure),they can match with the world top 8 md player...with this runner up,they should have break into world 60

[samuel882]

Too bad here in Phuket , all the restaurants/Pub all showing Middlesbrough vs Man Utd EPL Live, nobody give a damn for Boonsak match :(

[Noridayu]

India coach is from Indonesia. Thai leads 12-8. Now,9-12. Boonsak shots went wide. Latest:13-9.
