No Zhang Nan and no Wang Yilu Is Wang injured or sick? I haven't seen him in the line up of the CBSL last days either. All the best for Ahmad/Natsir!
Everyone, be sure to prepare lots of tissues as Natsir will have a tearful farewell. Oh, yeah, let's see if Istora is on fire because JC is on court and the female fans go crazy.
All other associations need to learn from Malaysia and Denmark. They usually telecast all courts live. Even badminton Europe do the same.
Sucks for no live streams on all courts like last week but I won't miss the screams from Chang/Jung. They were screaming after every point against FukuHiro, regardless if they scored! AAhhhh! AAAhhhh! AAAAAAhhhhhh!!!!!!
Yup, I shall be there ...... in celebration of such an exceptional talent. Alas, can't really see regeneration in Indonesian XD at the moment.
Yeah, we have to get used to the situation where INA XD is no longer dependable. Right now, INA XD is under rinovation until there is at least one solid pair that canchallenge everyone.
Perhaps the other associations afraid that if they telecast all courts, no one will watch the match from TV. Or maybe they are thinking that it is very costly if they do so. Anyway, I agree with your post as this is the way to popularize badminton.
Maybe they're joining the rest of winter training. All the best for Ronald/Debby too! Since TV didn't provide all courts telecast, I think it's more about ticket selling rate.
I mean Natsir is a legend but the fact that her, playing at 70% for a few years, pretty much with 1.5 legs and still WR4 just show how uncompetitive XD is.
No, it just shows how good the combination of Ahmad/Natsir is. Ahmad hasn't been showing good results with other partners so far.
