Why dont rediff update the news. Well for saina, she has some endurance issues. She was totally exhausted in the 3rd game and Okuhara improved which made her lose the match. Looking forward for the finals

Attackers' matches
by Joseph Thodukayil on Aug 26, 2017 09:51 PM  | Hide replies

Whether it's the match of Srikanth Vs Son or that of Victor Axelsen Vs Chen Long, the attackers turned out to be the winners. Axelsen has been smashing fiercely almost throughout the two games and Long appeared to be so much wanting in his defence against his attacks.Saina and Sindhu too were no exception.It appears that Saina lost steam towards the end of the second and the decider games while Okuhara improved her defence and net play simultaneously. The latter's big endurance finally yielded the match in her favour. But Saina had showed excellent performances in all the matches though he had a long break after her knee injury. Congrats to her for her bronze and best wishes to Sindhu for a Gold.

Great game Saina. Well fought. But I think your physical fitness is somewhat declining. I know you are coming back from injuries. Probably age is picking up. But still you are good. Keep it up.
