In a thrilling Women’s Doubles Group B match, Maheswari suffered a cramp during the third game, while Polii and Maheswari had the chance to secure victory against Japan’s Miyuki Maeda/Reika Kakiiwa. The match was a fierce battle, with both teams showcasing their skills and resilience. The Japanese displayed a strong defense, prolonging each rally and even achieving an 89-stroke rally. Despite winning the close first game and having two match points, the Indonesian pair couldn’t maintain their momentum. Maheswari’s left calf muscle cramp caused her to retire early in the third game, resulting in a final score of 18-21 22-20 6-8 retired.
“We had our chances,” lamented Polii. “Nitya experienced some trouble in the second game, but she didn’t want to give up. Unfortunately, her injury became worse and we had no choice but to concede the match.”
A Back Injury
Indonesia faced further disappointment when Ahsan incurred a back injury during the Men’s Doubles match against China’s Chai Biao/Hong Wei. He felt the pain during practice the day before and experienced the same discomfort during the tournament. Ultimately, Ahsan’s back pain forced him and Setiawan, the defending Men’s Doubles champions, to retire at 11-7 down.
“I first felt it during practice yesterday. The back was hurting, and I couldn’t breathe. I felt the same today as well,” Ahsan shared.
