    exactly. hold and hold until your opponent's sword break for itself.. this sounds good but in fact the best defense is ATTACK

    they must be very consistent to deflect all the bullet. interesting strategy indeed. if you can't break through, it will be frustating and get to your nerve. Eventually the attacking team smashes will become weaker and the table will turn into defending team's favor

    on the other side, santoso played very well today. defending a lot of crosscourt overhead smashes from Du PY and didnt have the intention of giving up the net area to Du PY

    Yup, we want to see the best against the rest!

    Adds to evidence why the Olympics is better at maximum two representatives from each NOC. Badminton can't afford to have a farce at the Olympics.

    I don't think srikanth to be any threat to LCW.. With LCW's current form, nobody can stand before him..

    Srikanth is playing a nice game so far and not overawed like at HK Open last year. A very different player.

    Let's see if LCW moves up a gear.

    This is getting interesting. Srikanth is playing well. If he can keep the errors down...

    Hawkeye says in for Srikanth. Point to Srikanth!!

    The Srikanth really has LCW on the ropes these last few points.

    LCW takes it. Entertaining game. Srikanth at the net was awesome.

    Where he did really well was taking the shuttle at the first chance, and then mixing it up with double actions. Think he over did it on the last point of the game.

    With one game in the bag, I think LCW is in no mood to let KS test him the 2nd game.

    Unless LCW relaxes a bit too much, I don't expect G2 to be a close affair.
