    Given the "fluency" of this match, I am almost certain that the title will go to Taufik.

    Hafiz is doing it again -- he relaxes instead of going on the attack.

    When he attacks he wins. But he does not do that all the time

    Hafiz will pose less of a threat to Taufik. That's why I am hoping Hafiz can beat Chen Long :D 18-14 to Yoyo Hafiz now...just 3 more pts...can he take the match?

    Chen long has still got a long way to go to reach the top - losing to Hafiz does not suggest he is going anywhere fast.

    Hafiz 19-15. He will win. If he can beat Chen Long, he's greater than Lee Chong Wei!!!!

    Good.....looks like abedeng's prediction is going to bear fruit. Taufik Hidayat will meet Mohd Hafiz Hashim in the Final tomorrow and I think Taufik may just win his first title of the year in India. INA really needs a title or two tomorrow!!!

    Maybe Chen Long had food poisoning? Hafiz didn't play any better than yesterday, but Chen Long's performance today is miles off.

    I like to correct you here. He is a yo-yo boy which means as much as he can lose easily he can also win easily.:D

    "When you don't expect him to lose, he loses. When you don't expect him to win, he wins" stands the trial of time again. :D

    Kinda disappointing really. Avataar and I were hoping to see a Chen Long vs Taufik final.
