AP is on fire today, she outclassed CP (one of my favorite) in XD earlier and is more or less looking better in WD too. Great for her
Exactly.. i mean, the chance of us seeing any Chinese youngster MD or any other non normal MD mix is in HKG game. Well.. FHF and Zhang Nan does provide security.. Really? As far as i can see, Opera only have Browser-wide VPN. If you turn on VPN on one tab (or put US on one tab), all other browser windows and open tabs of Opera, would connect to VPN (or connect through US), except if u open private browsing window. I am using Opera 45.0
That's too harsh, another so close yet so far! Nothing unexpected happened, but the the 4-1 scoreline doesn't summarize the match. It was pretty close. Any here or there could've been different
you should be using private browsing by default.... unless you happy to let your browser remember your social media logins/ history and compromise your security, I mean log you in automatically...
DANES again escaped by the skin of their teeth. Considering the situation of indians in doubles, they did extra ordinarily well, not like some people predicted. It could have gone either way. Danes are luckiest people today. Sent from my SM-G600FY using Tapatalk
DEN are the luckiest peope to win Thomas cup last year, 3-2 vs TPE, JPN (without Momota!!!!), MAS and INA. Also they avoided the 2 nigthmare teams CHN and KOR.
Too bad they've already shown their hand (Rankireddy/ Ponappa & Reddy/ Ponappa)-- nothing they've done is really outside of the MAS/INA badminton play-book/ style-- INA will be ready, even though no one in their team seems to be on-form except their MD.... Just like IND vs DEN, IND vs INA will hinge on the XD & WD (my guess is that IND will take WS + MS & lose MD) India is providing the biggest thrills this Sudirman Cup!
Yep, the CHN and KOR teams have become complete nightmares to Chinese and Korean fans with their ridiculously inconsistent performances these last 2 years-- I mean, the schizophrenic level of discrepancies between their world rankings and their performances... But DEN "made" their own luck-- does TPE, JPN, KOR, or even CHN have a properly "tiered/ balanced" team like DEN does? INA has been regretting their over-dependence/investment on their "golden generation" for the last decade or so...
DEN v IND, 4-1. As predicted, India stole point through Pusarla V. Sindhu but credit to Indian doubles pairs fighting spirit particularly Ashwini Ponnappa who played positively and fearless to face higher-ranked and fancied opponent. Danish XD and WD dug deep to overcome their rival even Ponnapa/Reddy almost stunned Rio silver medalists Juhl/Pedersen, luckily world number two prevailed with 23-21 despite leading comfortably 19-12 at deciding game. Viktor Axelsen is too strong and sharp for Ajay Jayaram today, he frustrated the Indian, 21-12 / 21-7. A similar situation happened in women's singles when Sindhu outmaneuvered Line Kjaersfeldt, 21-18 / 21-6. Indonesia who will take on India tomorrow should be wary, both teams have equal chance to win this crucial tie.
I'm impressed by India's WD although they lost marginally to DEN. Against INA, India must field a stronger MS to strengthen their chances. INA is no easy meat.
Battle hardened India against powerhouse Indonesia looks to be an exciting encounter! India's fighting spirit gives hope amidst the gloom. I am more optimistic of a famous Indian win after watching their performance! India will go back to regular formations in doubles. Ashwini/Satwik will play again only if India qualifies for the knockouts. But expect to see them on the circuit from Australia SS onwards. I expect the following team: MD: Satwik/Chirag XD: Sikki/Pranaav WD: Ashwini/Sikki MS: Srikanth K WS: PV Sindhu
What's happening? Ind vs Den was on court 1. And still there are no recorded videos on youtube. But some channel posted videos of aus vs USA and Sin vs Austria etc. Is something wrong? There were no live tv for that court? @badmuse
@Baddyforall It was a TV court match. Probably take a little more time for someone to upload the match videos. Highlights available here: http://www.hotstar.com/sports/Badminton/tournament/sudirman-cup-2017-3700
U can get highlights on hotstar And maybe they'll be available on YT after some time, the match was on a Monday afternoon so I doubt there will be any fan recorded stuff though
http://www.hotstar.com/sports/badminton/thailand-vs-hk-mens-doubles/2001702302 Just go back and you can watch India vs Denmark tie. Replay will be uploaded later on hotstar.
Yeah I know Sikki/PJC will be safer bet, but miracles don't happen if you follow the textbook. Considering how well Satwik/Ashwini played today, it won't hurt to choose them again
