At $350K All England Open Badminton Championship 2011, Birmingham

[QF] (5) Saina Nehwal (IND,5) l Eriko Hirose (JPN,17) 11-21 20-22

Disappointing loss for Saina ... In first game she failed to produce any fight ... In second game also Eriko take early lead but Saina fought back and managed to caught her at 16-all ... Saina saved 1 match point at 19-20 but Eriko converted 2nd to complete her win.

Frankly the fact was that Eriko played much better game and she deserved to win ... She troubled Saina with high flight serves and Saina's discomfort was showing ... Eriko shots had more variety and guise than Saina. Other hand Saina played very predictable and struggling with her drop shots.
