    Sasaki at game-pt...20-19. And he didn't waste the chance to force a rubber-set, winning the second set 21-19.

    A very interesting contest going on between India's Pawar and Taiwan's Hsuan. Both at 22-22 in first game.

    Sigh...Yoyo Hashim sneaks to R16 after a 22-20 rubber-set victory over Sho Sasaki.

    2009 Malaysia Open SS: Pawar should do better

    .
    This is really not good news for Pawar. He should lead and win his 1st game with ease.

    I know, Indian players have been very unpredicatable and this is one of the reason why this game despite being so popular in India has not produced any good names at world level. Lack of finesse is disturbing for their fans.
    Still hope, with so many participants this time, we get quality play. :)

    wat do u mean by unpredicatable? I think Indian players are quite predicatable, they usually crash out before R16.

    Finesse? I always thought Indian players possessed a huge amount of finesse. Wasn't their achilles heel fitness?

    You can say that. But being an Indian I will certainly prefer using word finesse ;)

    I think Indian players still playing the style of 80-ish! Lop & Drop...

    And seldom see them on international tournament for the past few years, maybe due to no-government support?

    :cool:
