Watched the commentary video of FZD vs Harimoto.. Would love to see the translation of the commentary of the Koki Niwa - Ma Long match cause I think it was a more interesting match up.
Secondly, LGL is so familiar with the CNT players and team. [...]
DN is the only lefthanded among the five. CNT just didn't want to risk the doubles at the beginning of the match.
It was actually surprising that Ding Ning was chosen as the #1 on CNT given her recent form. In her loss to Chen Xingtong she looked 80% ready at best, she wasn't that dominant in China Super League either with a record of 18-5. Meanwhile, Liu Shiwen had 28-2, which is mindblowing considering the level of the competition.
That's what I meant, for him to be an analyst on matches, like he did on the ones posted, live or afterwards, doesn't matter to me. I would like to hear his comments.I have to disagree here - LGL would be amazing to have as an analyst after the match - Heck, give him his own hour long show to analyse the different matches.
But to listen to as a commentator..... He talks too much, and distracts from the game.
Experienced players might benefit from the insight (which is why he should be analysing the game when it's finished), but newcomers to the sport will be bored, and not entertained by his "in match" story telling.
