If ShettyRR lost G2 because of getting faulted 3 times, i think they will have lost the match. Hard to see its high or not, we just want to see fullflow instead of serves getting faulted.
Satwik /Shetty won it in Straight games. So many Service errors from Shetty today but still they managed to win in straights.
Impressive result by Satwik/Chirag. Last year at French Open after they lost to Minions in SF, I said Chirag needs to step up in order to make this partnership successful as Satwik was the better player back then. But since Thailand Open, scenario has changed. Chirag has really stepped up his game and Satwik is not yet to his best after injuries. Chirag is doing very good at front court and is smashing well too with better defence than Satwik. Tomorrow is gonna be a tough challenge for them because if I'm not wrong they haven't beaten either of the Japanese pairs. PS- I think the umpire and service judge in this match were very strict.
But still we don't know who they are going to play tomorrow. If liu/li proceed tomorrow, i think satwik/chirag need to get positives from the fact that they have beaten them before and start to play.
Fun to see both Axelsen and Chen Long back in form, altough I would like Ng Ka Long to win his current match...It feels like he's not playing the dropshot as much as he was earlier in the set. Got to use Axelsens height against him.
Du Pengyu 's receding hairline is getting so serious, nearing the bald spot that he's developing a bald pate
