2010 Commonwealth Games - Individual Events, Oct 11 to 14

[abedeng]

Singaporean defence not as good as previous matches.

A number of lucky net cords from Ashwini Ponnappa. India win 21-16 in game 1.

 

[markchan]

Ponnappa has the most powerful smash, according to the commentator. At 260km/h.

Yep, she does have a pretty powerful smash. Wished the MAS girls could smash like that.
Eventho Gutta is "hefty" as madbad so kindly puts it, she is quite fast at controlliong the net.

 

[abedeng]

Yao Lei hasn't imposed herself in this match. I was expecting more from her.

Yes, her front court play is quite good despite her... errr... size. Heft lefty, hehe

I counted 3 net cords for Ponnappa

 

[vpsingh]

Ponnappa has the most powerful smash, according to the commentator. At 260km/h.

Amongst the four players on court? Or amongst all female Indian players?
I thought Jwala had strongest smash!

 

[abedeng]

Good crosscourt angle from Gutta to change the outcome of the rally

 

[vpsingh]

I counted 3 net cords for Ponnappa

Biased net cords too....

 

[nokh88]

I counted 3 net cords for Ponnappa

4 in total. none to SIN.

 

[abedeng]

Sari faulted on her serve.

 

[abedeng]

Now Yao is challenging Gutta at the net.

 

[abedeng]

Singaporeans are not composed, too many cheap errors. But on the crosscourt attack, they are good.

 

[abedeng]

Singapore 11-9 at the break.

 

[nokh88]

Amongst the 4 girls, Ponnappa has the hardest smash but weakest defence....and the prettiest.

 

[abedeng]

Ashwini is not that settled in the match either. Gutta, however, is in form and actually more willing to move than normal.

Now you know why avataar and I love to talk to her.

Haha, "more willing to move than normal" . In her defence, she is playing very well

She is the weak link in IND pair at the moment.

 

[abedeng]

Steep crosscourt angle from Yao Lei to break Indian momentum

 

[abedeng]

Sari forced down trying to save the clear.
