Taufik is playing good here but LD looks almost Supernatural! It's as if he's toying with Taufik here... He really is GOD of Badminton!!!
You can never draw level with LD, it is not possible. Whenever you get to N-1 points that he has he goes to 100%.
is it allowed for one's racket to hit the sc crossing the opponent side yet cleaned, not touching the net? just as LD did few points back but faulted by umpire???
it the shuttle would not have crossed the net it is NOT allowed. and it seemed like the shuttle wouldn't have crossed the net. EDIT: sorry i am wrong above. it's like that: - If the initial point of contact with the shuttle is not on the striker's side of the net it is a fault! (The striker may, however, follow the shuttle over the net with the racket in the course of a stroke.)
