But star of he day...

Shivani Gadde Ruthvika stuns World No. 25 Nitchaon Jindapol 21-18, 21-16 in her match . Earlier in the day, World No. 10 PV Sindhu and doubles specialists Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa won their respective matches to stun Thailand 3-1 after the early loss of Saina. This is the second consecutive year that India is assured of a medal in the Uber Cup.

 

 

 

In fact in my post before the uber I had said that she has great potential  and that she can spring a surprise despite a 110+ rank but this just proves it ...................It is a great achievement......I believe in a years time she should be in top 25 ....i hope she gets some good corporate support................  Nitchaon is not just a world no 25 player but also has been a top 12 player till some time back so a great win ....also  I thnk a good win for jwala / ashwini after some time .....................

 

Now for China in the semis can india pull off the impossible ???

let's look at the lineup 

 

Li vs Saina ...... can go either way , edge to Li but not impossible for Saina to win 

wang shixian vs Sidhu ..... can go either way ... even chances as sidhu does well against the chinese 

wang yihan vs ruthvika ....... almost an impossible task 110+ vs world no 4 ...it is like yuki vs federer ..................... but ruthvika is very classy so 95-5 with a small 5 chance 

tian /zhao vs ashwini / jwala .... less impossible but 75 -25 

 

 chen pair - world no 12 .against sikki / ashwini ...................... again almost impossible 

 

maybe they will make ashwini/ sidhu pair which did  a fine job against the japanese world 12 and almost beat them ...........................

 

so the chance we have is saina to beat li , sidhu to beat wang and then hope for a scratch pair to beat world no 12 doubles or hope that jwala / ashiwini can pull off a suprise ...extremely poor chances .............but hope zinda hai
