    What are you guys talking about ??? Most of INA team's errors are coming from Melati.

    She hasn't bested HYQ even 5% of the time.

    Both are bad, but I'm more frustated with praveen since he's so talented. there's a reason why indonesian fans keep getting frustated with him time and time again

    HYQ playing really well. Defense is beast, thae front XD is probably the difference. Dont see much smash from Jordan and ZSW (strapping). Made the pair become slow and labored.

    Praveen always made some errors, dont think he play good or bad.

    China employing the age old classic of "dominate the net" tactic. Winning by limiting the Indonesian's attacking chances.

    HYQ has absolutely dominated the net. Melati might as well not even be there

    HYQ improvement throughout the years has been incredible, her front court game wasn't this scary back in 2017 when she still play with lu kai. she's playing on the level of great zhao yunlei rn

    Yeah I don't know what the Indonesian pair were doing during the pandemic, clearly not training that hard. Embarrassing performance.

    Both are not equally responsible and maybe if you were more frustrated at Melati, she would feel like she has to pull her weight.
    She was absolutely APPALLING.

    If not for China's sudirman loss to Korea in 2017, we might not have see this XD pair of ZSW/HYQ, and both seems to improve much in consistency and calmness.

    Gold medal waiting for this pair.

    Okay changing channels to the other WS - I can't stand PV Sindhu.

    The Iranian girl has pretty smooth shots and movement surprisingly - even would put Wendy Chen from Australia to shame.
