    Objectivity rather than flights of fancy.

    So here it is... both teams looking at the gates of the finals... Who gets to ENTER?
    IND with a makeshift arrangement here in WD2h players who have delivered, can they deliver now when it is most needed?

    Eriko saves the day for JPN. One more to come. Both JPN and IND have their chances in the final WD match, simply because it's an unusual situation, so the outcome doesn't necessarily go according to the books.

    Yep. I will always cheer up for indian team. I don't care about the results of the final match. But they were able to drag japan to this level . That is extra ordinary. After japanese thomas cup team did an excellent job winning 3-0 over top seeds, japanese uber cup team will be fired up.

    This is a match with much unpredictable outcome... either way is quite open!

    Well at least I got to see SN and Sindhu pairing up in doubles but my bet is still on JPN to win. :cool:;):)

    I don't know why India didn't let Arundhati Pantavane play in this tournament in WS3. She has even beaten Eriko Hirose last yer. Maybe she is injured...

    a scratch pair of 24/18 with no WR... the number is the age of Saina/Sindhu :)

    or a scratch pair of 8/11... their respective WR in single

    It seems that indian fairytale ride in this tournament is going to end. I don't thing Saina/Sindhu are going to beat so well established doubles players. but, last four is a big achievement.

    LOL...
    You never know what this pair can do today...
    I see the JPN WD2 team not in the best of form here, they have already lost 1 out of 2 matches in this tournament.

    Anyone know what the Japanese players are saying on the sidelines? Looks like they're all having fun
