That's why I bash her all the time. After a decade, she still doesn't give off the sense of reliability one would expect.
She just not a good doubles player. Hirano made most of the points, but I think this time Ishikawa was not as aweful as in some worldtour doubles. Possibly because the opponents this time were not quite competitive. Hirano must feel a lot of pressure playing with ishikawa. If she doesnt make the point outright, ishikawa is always good for a mistake.
