Asia Junior Badminton- Unnati Hooda advances into final: Highlights
Talasila working hard
Talasila is showing the stomach for fight back, he is coming up with some good shots occasionally. But, he is being made to work hard by Yih. No point easy to come by for the Indian at the moment, but he is hanging on. Trails 12-15.
Anish surrenders Game 1!
He fought back well, but the Chiense Taipei shuttler was just beyond his reach. An inch perfect smash from Lee Yu-Ji and Anish has to surrender the first game 18-21.
Anish fights back!
Anish Thoppani, on the other hand, is fighting back. Still has a 3-point deficit, but he seem to be growing in confidence with some good shots. Trails 16-19.
Talasila lags behind
Talasila trails 7-11 at the second mid-game break. He needs some motivation to turn this around in this short break, or else this match and a place in the final can slip away quickly from his grasp.
Anish continues to struggle
Lee Yu-Ji simply seems to be the better player on the court at the moment. He is making Anish work hard for every point even as the Indian keeps gifting them away. Anish is down 9-16 now in the first game.
Errors galore for Talasila
Talasila is on the backfoot at 5-6 in the second game, and it is largely due to self-inflicted errors.
Anish trails
Not the best of starts for Anish Thoppani as he trails 6-11 at the first mid-game break. While his opponent is moving seamlessly on the court, Anish is yet to find his rhythm.
