Harsheel Dani simply crushed LDK in second game. He is extremely deceptive and left hand player. He is very tall .
Another poor and lacklustre performance from Lee Dong Keun by losing the match to an unknown India player is sending an alarming bell to the Korean coaches and stating in a truthful manner that Korea MS is in a big trouble now. I wonder what will the Korean coaches do to solve this issue.
Yes still in my workplace working but luckily manage to check the scores online. A few notable matches to mention.
First happy that Shin Baek Cheol / Chae Yoo Jung won their XD match in style trashing their opponents flat.
Next exciting match is Chan Peng Soon / Goh Liu Ying also won their XD match in style trashing their opponents flat.
Finally what an exiting match for the last MS match at court 2. A tough fought match with Shi Yuqi winning the match over Chong Wei Feng 21-18 21-19. Wow what a close call. The match could have gone either way. Anyway congratulation to both players for playing so well to give us an exciting match.

Having been wrong yesterday, I hope you will not make another unreasonable and biased prediction. They fought hard to be where they are today and we should not count them out prematurely without a fight.

I hope he is selected for the Indian National Team. He needs regular international tournament exposure to gain experience and to raise his game. He is a delight to watch and is very creative in his execution of shots.
