Saina scored another one-sided win, this time over WR #11 Shao Chieh Cheng showing her the first round dominant win wasn't fluke ... In this match Saina never was in any trouble ... Next she is facing Chinese WR #6 Yanjiao Jiang ... Saina having 0-3 win-loss against her but interestingly all wins r before October 2009 and after that they r first time meeting.

After losing the first game easily Jwala and Ashwini gave respectable performance in the second game against WR #1 Chinese pair.

Jwala and Diju reached in the quarters beating local unranked pair in 3 games ... Next they r facing 3rd seed Danish pair, who r dominating our pair in their recent matches.
