    Just out of curiosity, who exactly is ZJW's bf? Obviously someone from the China team I'm assuming.

    Lee Chong Wei vs Chen Hong - LCW could win if he doesn't crumble
    Bao Chunlai vs Taufik Hidayat - TH wants his 7th win, Bao isn't 100%

    WS:
    Zhu Lin vs Pi Hongyan- Pi may be exhausted already, Zhu had some rests
    Petya Nedeltcheva vs Wang Chen - No comments needed

    MD:
    Cai/Fu vs Koo/Tan- will be 3 tough and close games, could go either way but I think Cai/Fu are in better form.
    Gunawan/Wijaya
    vs Abd Latif/Tazari - easy win against the newbies, I believe.

    WD:
    Yang/Zhaovs Emms/Kellogg - I'm hoping for non All CHN final
    Gao/Zhang vs Du/Yu - Gao is in tip top shape

    XD:
    Widianto/Natsir vs Lee/Lee - about time this pair go to final
    He/Yu vs Gao/Zheng - better pair will win

    Overall, it will be an interesting semi-final.

    No worries, the matches will start at 1.30pm Malaysian Time, Indonesian Time is 1 hour ahead of ours. We might probably missed a little, or just the 1st set of the LCW vs CH's match. Hopefully LCW don't finished off CH super fast... LOL :eek: :cool: :p :D

    When was the last time the Chinese pair won against the Malaysian pair? They have lost to the Malaysian pair in the Asian Games, All England and Swiss Open :crying:

    I just did a quick calculation of the top MD players' possible world ranking points on next Thursday. Much to my (pleasant) surprise, KKK/TBH will become World No.2.

    Essentially, the current No.2 pair JJS/LYD's ranking will definitely drop because their last year's IO points will be "expired". On the other hand, being eliminated at qf of this year's IO, current No.3 MK/HS will be overtaken by 3 pairs - KKK/TBH, CW/TG and JE/MLH. Among them, JE/MLH will certainly occupy No.4.

    Now it's between KKK/TBH and CW/TG. KKK/TBH has a better chance to take up No.2 as the 9000 points earned by CW/TG at the last IOwill be "expired", while KKK/TBH will keep all the points they earned previously. The only scenario where CW/TG overtake KKK/TBH is that CW/TG win the title while KKK/TBH are beaten in the sf. If KKK/TBH advance to final, the No.2 spot is theirs even if they fail to win the title.

    Okay, World No.2 is within KKK/TBH's reach. However, it's still a long way for them to overtake CY/FHF due to the big gap between the points the two pairs earned. They need to win the WC title and at least 2 more SS titles to achieve that. But now we have some doubt in their consistency ...


    P/S: Presently ranked No.80, Zakry/Fairuzizuan will break into Top-50 on next Thursday.
