    Hopefully, yes. I look forward to it. LD should be wary.

    If NTM were Malaysian, Indonesian or Korean, he would have made the grade as a top player, perhaps be even better than he is now.

    He came to the wrong sport, brought his squash racket instead of the badminton one.:D Thought it was the same.

    It's a tough task for Xie/Zhang to progress into even semi-finals but Flandy/Vita look good for a place in the finals after Zheng/Gao and Sudket/Saralee's losses.

    Don't think so, that would be a walkover. But a disqualification could mean he turned up but ...maybe wore the wrong shirt...brought a tennis racket instead ... ermmm:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Fang Chieh-Min/Cheng Wen-Hsing took care of Zheng Bo/Gao Ling [2].
    Meanwhile, Flandy/Vita's own team-mates Mohd Rijal/Greysia Polii took care of Sudket Prapakamol/Saralee Thoungthongkam [6].

    Meanwhile, the 2 Korean pairs in their half are also eliminated:
    Lee Jae Jin/Ha Jung Eun lost to another CT pair Chen Hung-Ling/Chou Chia-Chi, so, Flandy/Vita will meet them tomorrow.

    Han Sang Hoon/Hwang Yu Mi [7] lost (shockingly) to the Indian pair V. Diju/Jwalla Gutta. That has somewhat made the job easier for Anggun Nugroho/Endang Nursugianti tomorrow.

    Progress to Final could be as follows:
    R16: vs Chen Hung-Ling/Chou Chia-Chi
    QF: vs Mohd Rijal/Greysia Polii or Hendri Kurniawan Saputra/Li Yujia
    SF: vs Fang Chieh-Min/Cheng Wen-Hsing or Anggun Nugroho/Endang Nursugianti

    It will be a disaster if Flandy/Vita can't beat these pairs :eek:

    If they manage to take care of them all (hopefully), which pair will be their opponent in Final?

    Depends on which pair emerges from the top-half. Likely to be a toss among Nova/Butet [1], He/Yu [3], Xie/Zhang [5], or Lee/Lee [8].

    Hi, badMania, beware. Will Rijal/Polii give Flandy/Vita a WO should they meet in QF? :cool:;) Note that it is clearly claimed that one goal of the Indo team in ABC is to prevent Xie/Zhang from getting into OG.

    I m hoping to see a good fight, not walkover, not injury in the middle of the match, nor exhibition match like what we saw in Europe last month...remember how we react when all these happened last month...
