AJ did well and ignited hopes in g2, but sure enough as predicted crumbled in the decider! Another def for India against the Left Handers I myself didn't counted for him to win but if they don't win this MD1(improbable)they'll be in trouble
It is rather difficult for IND to overcome THA in their TC group as IND has now lost MS1 and MD1. However if IND managed to win the next two matches, their MS3 has a good chance to prevail.
Thailand's Khosit has lost his plot and ran into many unforced errors during G2 as Praneeth cruised through 21-11. Praneeth should take M2 as well as surprisingly Khosit seemed to be wanting on stamina.
Hong Kong's UC, Cheung Ngan Yi is trying hard to salvage a point from Thailand's Busanan by winning M1 and leading in M2 11-7. HKG is trailing 0-2. While Bulgaria's Stoeva sisters are trying to prevent a 3-nil drubbing by INA, but without avail.
Good job Anggia/Dewi, 2 thumbs up. I knew it will be though vs Stoeva's but they held nerves at the end. Good match Ina girls, 3-0 immediately, to prepare vs HK and Tha.
IND's MD2 has lost M1 15-21 and trailing 1-2 overall. Not a good sign and IND must win this match for a chance to win overall.

THA men's team win easily over IND, when Boonsak Ponsana did not playing. This is a good start for THA team. It should be very confident by the very beginning since their best MS not playing.

So the result can be concluded as such. Uber cup Indonesia win Bulgaria 5-0 Thailand win Hong Kong 3-1 Thomas Cup Thailand win India 3-1 Korea win Germany 5-0
Country such as Thailand Thomas Cup team performed so well beyond expectations even when their best MS Boonsak is not playing. Very convincing win and good result too. Then Korea also performed so well to win over Germany by winning all their matches. Then Indonesia Uber Cup team also did a good job to win all their matches over Bulgaria. Thailand Uber Cup team also did a good job to win 3-1 over Hong Kong. Overall for today result, all the better countries have won just as I have predicted earlier.
The line-up for afternoon session (01.30pm) is already out. THOMAS Cup CHN v MEX => http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/s...98FF39E5-3CE5-4D78-A9E6-4199026B3C5D&match=14 China gives the exposure for their reserve players against weak team Mexico, Lin Dan and Fu HF/Zhang N will sit at the bench. JPN v FRA => http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/s...98FF39E5-3CE5-4D78-A9E6-4199026B3C5D&match=12 No Brice Leverdez for above line-up as Thomas Rouxel will play first singles against Sho Sasaki. UBER Cup CHN v MAS => http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/s...98FF39E5-3CE5-4D78-A9E6-4199026B3C5D&match=93 Defending champion CHN will field Sun Yu instead of Wang Shixian as third singles. Interesting to follow reigning world junior champion Goh Jin Wei to face former world cham;pion Wang Yihan in third match. TPE v MRI => http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/s...8FF39E5-3CE5-4D78-A9E6-4199026B3C5D&match=107 It's should be no problem for TPE team to create perfect scoreline.
