    It seems like england team was well prepared to meet chinese taipei and drubbed them. And now one step further is that they need to win russia . That's not difficult I guess.

    Regarding india's 1-4 loss to malaysia is... well, though the loss was expected, I never expected kashyap to play something like that. Hilarious. Well. Now it's korea's turn I guess. Let's see how will they perform against korea.

    Regarding india's uber cup tie yesterday, I must say still saina is struggling with her movements on court. Whether she will be able to move freely today.?

    As expected, 5-0 for INA Thomas team. SIN MS1 Derek Wong stole one game and MS3 Sean Lee forced the in-form Simon Santoso to deuce. A tougher opponent Thailand will waiting them the day after tomorrow.

    Contrast fashion between Kashyap and Gurusaidutt yesterday. Germany almost humiliated the 2012 runner-up KOR yesterday, this may inspire India team. Will IND win all three singles against KOR?

    Srikanth should try his maximum to win the game in straight sets. If Son Wan Ho stretches the game to a rubber, it's going to be extremely difficult for Srikanth to win.

    Can anyone explain how Tan Boon Heong/Tan Wee Kiong can be fielded as MD #1 without even having a world ranking, while Goh/Lim are MD#2?

    They take notional points into consideration. Check out this link - http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=550247&dl=1 You'll notice that Tan Boon Heong/Tan Wee Kiong come in 2nd whereas V Shem Goh/Khim Wah Lim are ranked 4th.

    In my opinion, he crumbled under the mental pressure. The men' team know that they have to win all the 3 singles if they want to defeat Korea as Korea have strong and formidable doubles players.

    She can do alot more about her on-court speed. She is indeed struggling on court to reach for the shuttle. And people expect from Saina because of her past accomplishments. Well atleast for me, I think Saina has the capabality of regaining the way she played previously and also winning tournaments if she works harder.

    Chong Wei Feng losing to Dieter Domke, not a real surprise considering Dieter Domker downed Lee Dong Keun in two straight games yesterday. I did expect CWF to win this though...

    Marie ROEPKE is a nice-looking shuttler...

    UC: MAS - DEN is a tight match, final outcome is much opened... a decider occurs in the 4th match. In the meantime DEN team leads 2-1.

    That's some great fighting spirit, I saw him 7-14 down in the second game and just closed the live score, thought he was demoralized after losing the first game despite leading 19-17.
