Err, in the match order : MS1 Ld vs Th. Easy for Ld MD1 Fu/Cai vs Kindrawan. Kindrawan can win this. MS2 Chen Jin vs Simon Santoso. Definitively Chen. MD2 Guo/Xu vs Nova/random ina player. China win. And no way Th can't win Ld.
It's at the end of this article: http://us.detiksport.com/read/2010/...9/dua-tahun-lagi-taufik-tak-tahu?query-string You can use google translator if you don't understand indonesian languange.
bogeyman indeed, LD Vs TH since 2007; 2007 Malaysia Open Lin Dan 2-0 Taufik Hidayat 21-19 23-21 2007 France Open Lin Dan 2-0 Taufik Hidayat 21-14 22-20 2007 Hong Kong Open Lin Dan 2-0 Taufik Hidayat 21-12 21-14 2008 Hong Kong Open Lin Dan 2-0 Taufik Hidayat 21-17 21-14 2009 France Open Lin Dan 2-0 Taufik Hidayat 21-6 21-15 TH cant even took a single game from Lin Dan for almost 4 years!
It would be interesting if SDK is fully recovered to play MS2. He was able to beat CJ in the past. LD-TH: 70-30 (quite high expectation for TH but he is very motivated) Fu/Cai-Kindra: 50-50 CJ-SDK: 55-45 (assuming SDK fully recovered) Guo/Xu-Nova/Alvent(if): 50-50 BC-SS: 60-40 It will be a though match. China is favourite but as long as the match has not finished nothing is impossible.
Nova is well past his sell by date, experience of course but lack of power and speed, suicidal for the modern men doubles.
its easy, all there http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84752 (only from 2007 though)
Even Nova is old but his shots are amazing but at the same time..he can be nervous too..I just hope that we can steal 1 or 2 points...CHN is still a favorite to win Thomas Cup
imo, Kidowan are undoubtedly the best MD pair in the world when they max out their game. OG 08 is the perfect validation of this.
Yes, they were the best. But after Kidho injury, they have not gotten back their form yet. Hopefully this will be the time they are back to their form. Even worse, no other Indonesian doubles pair can match them right now, even though they are not at their best.
No... It will be 3-0 to China. Indonesia stand no chance at all. Let's just enjoy the matches of finest badminton tomorrow! ;-)
hmmm we can do better lahh at least we can make LYB watch until the last player (MS3) played and make him 'sweat' n 'nervous' , i believe ina players will fight all out
TH vs LD 10-90 It totally depends on LD and TH's form. If both play like how they are playing now, I would say 90% LD and TH 10%. Especially if LD shows his crazy attack, speed and defense yesterday to the point where he was toying with the next best MS in the world at the current moment. TH also played well yesterday, but I don't know if it is enough to take a game off LD. We shall see. MK/HS vs Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng 50-50 Cai Yun and Fu Haifeng were great yesterday. They forced many errors from the Malaysians and even a serious KKK/TBH couldn't find any tricks to stop them. Kido and Setiawan were toying with their Japanese opponents yesterday. Hopefully a great encounter. Simon Santoso vs Chen Jin 40-60 Simon was not very good yesterday. Sasaki was however, in decent form. Depends on a lot of factors. Chen Jin was inferior to skill to Wong Choong Hann but speed and consistency gave him an easy win. Indonesia 2nd MD vs GZD/XC 50-50 I think INA can get a second point here if they want to force a third and deciding game. China's weakest link is here. Hayom vs Bao Chunlai 40-60 I haven't seen Hayom play before.
