Quite disappointed that HK lose the match But I'm surprised by the performance of the XD and WD pairs
You mean Lee Chun Hei's current MD partner is not up to scratch? LOL It's a very decent MxD performance. Funnily enough, Chau Hoi Wah's performance's seem better with Lee than with her previous partners. Another year and Lee looks ready to take over as the new generation.
Not sure really who is his permanent partner for MD at the moment. He has been paired with Fernando Kurniawan in his most recent tourney (MAS GPG), Ng Ka Long (BAC), and Chan Yun Lung (Austrian IC, German GPG). Nevertheless, I feel that for the sake of continuity, I think he should partner with Ng Ka Long. But if he wants an experienced partner, then, Fernando Kurniawan will fit the bill.
He said: The line-up for INA vs IND is out. The coaches decide to rest Mohd Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan and Tommy Sugiarto. INA will rely on MD, XD and either MS or WD to deliver the points and a QF spot. No Tommy means Rumbaka is playing vs. Kashyap Parupalli. Looking at Kashyap performance's today, I think Rumbaka can beat him in straight set. No Mohd Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan means Angga/Rian is playing. It will be a good/tight match, if INDIA's MD pair can show us good performance like today's match vs. CHINA. The WS is likely Lindaweni. She has more experience, and mental toughness compared to Bellatrix and Aprilla. If she can beat PV Sindhu it will be a surprise steal point bonus to INA. Can't wait to see it tonight.
INA line up vs IND: MD : Ryan/Angga WS: Lindaweni MS: Dionisius Hayom Rumbaka WD: Greysia/Nitya XD: Tontowi/Lilyana One of MD, WS or MS must be win by INA, I think INA will take the poin from WD and XD....so score will be 3-2 either for INA or IND
very risky line up from INA team..and potentially dangerous order of play hayom was known as unreliable player at critical moment..it become crucial to either pratama/saputro and Fanetri to win at least 1 point... and with the forms that indian showed againts china..specially the MD...it will become a tough task...IF INA trailing 2-0...it will become very dangerous moment for INA...INA could lost the first 3 match
CY was a gentleman too. I remember there was a poor line call to his advantage, and next thing he was serving into the net (or out). Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but it didn't seem so to me then.
