It's a TRAP-- the garish colors/ contrast are designed to make you look away and miss their shuttle returns! LOL
GC once said Gopichand know Rajiv head to toe, and any Indian MS though young and inexperienced can defeat him. Well since he won European Championship he is surfing on great momentum made up of self belief. But yeah Rajiv has more or less same style as CL and SWH with less accuracy and power. If HSP isn't dead tired now, He will be tomorrow. Hope for the best Imo Kazumasas Sakai though inconsistent carries lethal smashes which can be vital to counter attack on HSP, every fan should pray for Rajiv to win KS played like we believe he can, but more often fails than not. He played like a favorite should against a flamboyant youngster. SWH is tough, especially how he disposed BSP was shocking to me. One thing's for sure both the matches will be nail biting with loads of smashes and dives. Keep your bears ready
Lol like the ones with Neon thin lines? I remember TJH or TQ was in that match, and those lines were drawing my attention and was like so hypnotizing strategy lol
For beating both LCW and CL, HS Prannoy deserves to win this tournament. Don't miss this golden opportunity and end up only doing the rest a huge favour.
Considering H S Prannoy is one of Badmintoncentral members , this is a huge news for our forum members. Hope he reads my post .
Hahaha fat chance of that happening. Currently he would want to crash in a cozy bed and hibernate few hours. Atleast he won't have time till the tourney lasts. And then Oz open maybe after that. But I don't think he opened it since his last post. Anyways, if he does. Kudos HSP this is the best by any Indian MS player ever. Great performance, and do win the finale
How has Kazumasa Sakai come so far in this tourney. Shaky footwork and keeps on smashing out even when under 0% pressure. RO is like take this baby and hit it wide
He always obliges for a chat. So cool! Guess he will indulge you in some equipment talk if he has time.
That FH cross court smash got NJ loads of point against SN and is working miraculously against TTY as well
I can't help to think there's something in NJ's innocent demeanor on court takes away some of opponent's aggressive approach and/or even some of there fighting spirit. Whenever she plays an above average shot it becomes a winner which would normally be returned to just out of desperation.
Meanwhile Sayaka Sato took away g1 from her younger more illustrious compatriot AY 21-17 Also, Kazumasa Sakai got his grip back and leveled terms with Rajiv 21-16 in g2
