Another efficient performance from Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan, beating yet another CHN pair in just 27 mins: 21-19, 21-17. So, can they defend their French SS title? It will be tough against either Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen or Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong. But, at least, they won't lose so many ranking points.
It could be..as SSJ/TJM can test Kindra...SSJ/TJM do not have a variety in MD...they have power only....I think GXD/XC is a much better pair then again they practice together so they know each other's movement/style..remeber that Kindra lost to Rian/Yoke too
Can you recall when was the last time a CHN MD pair beat Kido/Hendra??? It was way back in the China Masters 2007 Final. That too was going the INA's pair way before some linecall thingy that disrupted the momentum.
