Ace Indian shuttler Saina Nehwal is all set to clinch her second title of the year after she stunned world number two and top seed Chinese Shixian Wang in a grueling three-game semifinal contest of the USD 750,000 Australian Super Series here on Saturday.
Sixth-seeded Saina prevailed 21-19, 16-21, 21-15 in a marathon match, which lasted an hour and 16 minutes.”Beat world number 2 wang shixian in a tough 3 game match. Through to the final of the Australian Open super series!” tweeted the Indian after recording her fifth overall win against the Chinese nemesis.
Saina had earlier this year won the India Open Grand Prix Gold in Delhi.
