[Loh]

WSX won another 2 points 15-20.

And another with a smash 16-20.

 

[Loh]

But a line misjudgment by SN gave WSX another point 17-20.

 

[Loh]

That's as far as it goes as WSX hit long, by a whisker according to GC.

 

[Loh]

The ding-dong rallies continue, now 10-9 to WSX.

 

[Loh]

But SN took it 11-10 at the interval.

 

[Justin L]

WSX is making her life difficult, just moving her opponent around and not attacking much even when the return is a bit short.

 

[Loh]

WSX took back service 13-15 as SN hit long.

But SN forced WSX into hitting the net next, 17-13 for SN.

WSX must make her move if she wants to survive the match.

 

[Loh]

SN never gave her a chance 18-14.

 

[Loh]

A beautiful net shot gave WSX another chance. 15-18.

 

[Loh]

Yet SN attacked her serve 19-15.

 

[Justin L]

Saina is demonstrating how to play WSX who is glaringly lacking a sharp forceful attack.

 

[Loh]

A disguised net drop brought SN to match point but WSX save it 17-20.

 

[Loh]

WSX saved two smashes from SN 18-20.

 

[Akin44]

Nehwal won <3

 

[Loh]

But in frustration she hit the net after failing to capitalize on SN's weak returns from her powerful punch shots.

The end of the road for WSX.

Great show by saina. A visual treat for dubai fans of her. Hope some day, dubai will have its own team to play this sport ... comfortable straight games victory. Great start.. hope she does well in next matches as well.

 

[Loh]

A tenacious and more powerful SN won the match deservingly. Well done Saina!
