[luvina]

Come on GreyMel...

[madbad]

Can they do it? MAS close to 19-20, saving 3 game points in the process

But the TPE pair crawl across the line 21-19. Rubber beckons

[madbad]

THA pair seems to be making quite a few mistakes. Mel/Greys are playing well though

[madbad]

Nice cross court drive by THA catches the Indonesians. Easy net kill. INA 11-10

[madbad]

Mel drives into the net and throws her racket up in disgust. INA 12-11

[madbad]

Both Mel and Greys leave the drop shot and stare at each other 12-12

[madbad]

TPE #1 seed roar away in the rubber 4-0

[madbad]

Big down the line smash from Mel. INA 13-14

[madbad]

Duanganong clears long. INA 14-15

[madbad]

Mel continues to bash away and gets one past the Thais. INA 16-17

[madbad]

Net kill by Greys after a weak return from a Mel smash. 17-17

[madbad]

Kunchala gets a warning from the umpire for delaying the serve

[madbad]

A head high smash from Mel is mishit by the Thais. INA 18-17

Kunchala smash is blocked into the net by Mel 18-18

[madbad]

Greys smashes into the net. THA 19-18

[madbad]

Incredible defence from both sides, especially the INA pair, who save several point blank smashes but can't block everything. THA 20-19

Greys drives into the net and THA wins 21-19

[madbad]

Looks like the end of the road for the plucky MAS pair. TPE 14-7

[madbad]

Noticed that SMS/YL (SIN) took G2 off HJE/KMJ. In rubber, KOR 8-6
