Zwiebler took G2 with 21 - 18 !
So after already 52 minutes, it goes in the decider.

Mark took the second game 21-18.. now for the decider

 

[speedyJT]

Small statistic by the way, Zwiebler won every match between him and kashyap when it goes in the decider

Already it's happening.. he is leading in the rubber.. 6-2

 

[Justin L]

Marc evens things up and is in the lead in the decider, 6-2..

 

[scorpion1]

I dont see kashyap coming from here..

 

[nokh88]

He always talks negative about saina ... no need to worry. Simply ignore him. He is one of die hard fan of china ..

We know what is necessary for super series premier tournaments. Have you seen yesterday's matches?. Chinese umpires and service umpires sat for many matches involving chinese players.. May be some complaints might have been raised ..
I remember GC saying that only 6 foreign judges are there for this tournament. If so, what is the reason? Anybody?

Yup, I heard that too and commented. If only 6 international umpires and rotating as service judge, it certainly is not enough.
And what about the line judges? All are locals.

 

[speedyJT]

Well...Mark leads 13 - 5. I did not expect this in the decider...Maybe kashyap will come back

 

[kalippo]

is there a stream for court 2?

Well...Mark leads 13 - 5. I did not expect this in the decider...Maybe kashyap will come back

 

[speedyJT]

is there a stream for court 2?

Sorry; I can't tell you. I am at work and just following the live ticker

 

[nokh88]

Marc is the conqueror of the current WC. He must have something in him.

 

[speedyJT]

Congratulations Marc!

Congratulations Marc!

Congrats to your Marc. He did it again.. Entered semis..

 

[nokh88]

The crowd are so vocal that I could hardly hear what GC and MF was commenting.

 

[Devendra]

Nerves of Steel...
This comeback from Ma Jin and Xu Chen is tremendous. I wonder why they often lose nerves (or at least seem to) in many other matches.

 

[rajat_remar]

Congratulations Marc!

I think that the road to final for Mark is more or less clear (we must never underestimate Mamota/Srikanth) though. I hope the final would be interesting. It would be a welcome change to see LD battle MZ instead of CL, his usual opponent in China.

 

[Devendra]

Oh boy, I sure do not want to be that because of just one comment...

No you are not. Your comment was totally fair, and I replied to it. Even you acknowledged that Saina has a propensity to make excuses and complaints. Not that she isn't a great player. Obviously she is. In my personal rankings she ranks at around 4. Yet, I think her attitude, had it changed could possibly help her.

 

[nokh88]

Coming back to SD's match against Saina, in the 3rd game SD was clueless and staring at blanks. She kept hitting the shuttle long and looked lost but she looks kind of pretty.

 

[rajat_remar]

Real battle btween WYH and BYJ at the moment, tied 18-18 in the third game.

 

[nokh88]

19-19 all between WYH and Bae.
