To see Peter at 36 straining his body and has to draw on his vast experience, maturity and sheer willpower to keep going and deal with players more than 10 years his junior can be uneasy; really feel for him.
The Indian Varma (never heard of him before) has very nice smashes and peter looks a little bit helpless what to do. We will see!
He is the current Indian national champion and only 19 years old. Recall some decent performance at World Junior Championship ... Didn't think it would be an easy and certain 8 PAW points so didn't pick it . Maybe he shouldn't have decided to release his book this week with all the unnecessary side attention that comes along with it from a sportive point of view. Commercially of course, no better time . Bl**dy streaming had to decide to become a picture slideshow with manual operation halfway through the set ...
Du PY is to me one of the fittest of players, so I think it's not advisable to play long rallies and hope to wear him out, he's more likely to wear you down instead.
saurabh is not the current national champion,it's kashyap(won over ajay jayaram).Indeed Saurabh has lost to a junior player in the first round in the nationals which happened at the end of last month
Just when I thought Ajay could be the Indian player to watch besides Kashyap, he crumbled in games 2 and 3 unexpectedly.
Just thought I'd look up the WJC result but that was actually his younger brother Sameer in 2011 . But still Sourabh is the reigning Indian national champion, defeating the two players that seem to have kept him out of the World Junior Championship team in 2010 .. I stand corrected . Had no idea there was another national championship so soon with the previous only held in January this year ... Results here for the most recent one, the 77th: http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/winners.aspx?id=9CDB605F-80C3-4975-9864-AF59C16BD9E0 So is it: Varma or Verma?? Pretty sure I just saw Verma on his shirt ...
