    wow Srikanth is an amazing player just seems to be bad tactically and loses concentration a lot, after he fixes that the sky is the limit.

    Go go go, Ivanger. Awesome smasher. 21-20
    Apparently TB wanted to retire at 2nd game WS but umpire said if she retires she cannot play XD
    Hmmm Maybe she should retire and get replaced by Reddy for XD. With her injury and her height she may not be good fit with Ivanov:crying:

    It's frustrating watching this guy, so much talent so little brains

    Go go go Warriors!!!

    Pia and Tina is the weak link here, but Pia is more superior at the net as she is doubles specialist. What do you expect from WD No. 6 and XD no. 9 in the world ranking?

    Pia and Kido try to play flat shot to avoid Ivanov smash.

    Kido and Pia play so many flat and net shot, force Ivanov and Tina to lift and Kido thunder down the smash... Ivanov the smasher hardly has a chance to use his power to smash...

    Ivanov is back player so hardly in the net while Tina is might be good at net shot in singles game, but hardly able to challenge in form Pia and Kido..

    LCW should play his normal game. It was damn frustrating watching a training match.
    I think LCW/Tine would have performed better. Anyway looking forward to rematch of Saina vs Sindhu.

    He is K.Nandagopal , brother of K.Srikanth. He is a mixed double player and did not play even a single match in IBL.

    He had a big hand in most of the wins by Awadh Warriors. Nandgopal gets so excited and pumped up that the teammates think if they lose a match, they'd get beaten up by him. This is how they reached the finals by winning most their games out of fear.

    What a horrible strategy adopted by Mumbai Masters.. Poor planning? Literally threw away the match. Hope the word "Match Fixing" doesn't pop-up !

    I was talking about K. Srikanth, It was his game against Ivanov. Srikanth has bags more talent should have taken Ivanov easy, Srikanth controlled every rally but either made a really bad un forced error or just lifted it to the big man without pulling him into the net first.
