Japan is indeed the weakest among those 3 countries mentioned earlier. Remember they even almost got defeated by a rookie team like German in the group stage.
Agree. But I expect it to go down to 5th match where the uncertainty level is pretty high. Expecting Thai to prevail though
I think the choice is between Dinar/Ruselli H2H vs. Pornpawee. The 2nd WD pair is going to be a pair from any combo of: Della, Rizki, Ni Ketut.
INA only has fighting chance in both WDs and 2nd WS. The rest is clearly THA advantage. I rated Pompawee much better than Dinar/Ruselli
2nd WS: GMT? 1 & 2nd WS are not going to have fighting chance at all vs. RI, Nitchaon, Busanan. Fitriani and Gregoria won't be able to win for sure against any of the top 3 THA WS above. Pompawee is the 4th WS. Whichever you look at it, all INA WS won't win if 3 THA WS above are playing today.
Yes 2nd WS and yes I mean GMT, who knows, she's in currently in good form. beating both GJW and GFJ in straight sets is clearly a great results. From 3 WS ties against THA I think 2nd WS is the most possible for INA to win. 1st WS need miracle, 3rd WS very slim chance, both Pompawee / Busanan still too good for Dinar / Ruseli
probable logic : They want to prevent their live chat box to be over flooded and bombarded with spites and verbal wars.
It's good for FRA & CAN, so their matches are on television. We should let them first in this case. We're welcoming them here...
China vs Taipei really interesing. Imo all the matches are 60-40 chance for China. anything can happen. Will they field ChenLong as MS1? On the side, I think Both Indonesia and Malaysia would accept facing each other, good to avoid Taipei for Ina/ Japan for Malaysia
Err, the same logic why top seeded JPN vs TPE's Uber Cup Quarter-Final is not on a TV Court... because everyone is sure INA will win?
INA is definitely not 100% sure win ..... they have slight advantage vs MAS and i would say even chance vs THA we shall see soon enough
Not that logic I think. How 'bout Korea vs Canada for Uber QF then? It should be all countries have at least 1 QF match in TV (either Court 1 or 2). And the quota is 3 of 4 will be on TV court, 1 other isn't.
I just think it's very peculiar that we get full coverage of the UC but only half coverage of TC... they should broadcast Court 3 as well...
The rate is equal between Thomas Cup or Uber Cup , 3 of 4 QF matches are on TV Court. They're about 75%
