Chong Wei Feng has survived 3 60 minute games in a row now. I only wish Liew Daren with all his skills could adopt a similar fighting spirit. It's such a pity to see such a talented player be plagued by fitness issues while a less talented player can fight so hard for his country. I am really happy for Chong Wei Feng this tournament, he really shone with his fighting spirit and carried his weight for all of Malaysia's matches. If he can carry that into individual tournaments then it would be good.
Thats why Team Matches are wonderful... It teaches player to play with nerves.... more than they would if they are playing only for themselves...
I guess many BCers incl myself have underestimated the capability of IND pair: Jwala/Ashwini... and the lady coach of IND was seen praying, seeing her chanting silently Congratz to the HOST team for making history!
What a history... For the first time ever INDIA uber Team goes to SF! And for the first time ever INDONESIA uber team lost to India So sad,,, But India has very strong team, good strategy, and of course play in their homeland They deserve it Congratulation!
Now I think IND has some good chance facing JPN in SF. My very guess IND gonna field today's winning team. Leading 2-0 will definitely boost the WD1 fighting spirit, as seen in today's match.
Please.... Darren is over rated by you, his skills is just above average but his fighting spirit and lacksure attitude do not cut out to be a champion. He reminds me of KKK, have talent but just do not cut it to raise it to another level.. I would prefer GSH to play 3rd single, hopefully Msia do not need to play that last match.
Excellent. India made history by beating badminton super power indonesia by 3-0 to reach semifinals. Wonderful girls.
Thats the thing, 3 players... Against JPN it would go till the SN/PVS pairing... Wish them to play well repeating Susi Susanti and Mia Good Luck
3 WD1 Greysia POLII/Nitya Krishinda MAHESWARI - Jwala GUTTA/Ashwini PONNAPPA 18-21, 18-21 in 0:38 IND 3 - 0 INA
Congrats to the Indian team! Too bad for INA On a separate note, maybe the Indian WD1 can break Ayaka/Misaki's defense?? =D
Jwala/Ashwini always performs when it is needed from them. Big win for India, never i imagined that India will reach semis in the team event. A BIG help from Jwala/Ashwini for their fine display which overcame the World no. 9.
