Yes, those were the days. Liem Swie King, Rudy Hartono, Han Jian, Luan Jin, Zhao JianHua, Yang Yang, Morten Frost, Svend Pri, Prakash Padukone. The epic first China-Indonesia battle on Singaporean soil after China's admission into the IBF where Luan Jin beat an aging Rudy Hartono and Han Jian shocked Liem Swie King.

And of course, arguably the 2 greatest players of the century that the world has never seen in international competition: Hou Jia Chang and Tang "The Thing" Hsien Hu. It is said that Rudy Hartono, 8-time All-England Champ would not win a set against Tang at his prime.

So can these two players beat Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan ? In terms of playing style, Zhao looks much closer to Lin Dan, but in terms of retrieving skills they simply cannot match LCW and LD. LCW and LD hardly send the shuttle out of the court or into the net, unlike Zhao. As for Rudy and Liem, alamak they are too slow to play LCW and LD. Sure kanna under 5 one.

Icuk has never beaten Yang Yan in his lifetime. Now his offstring Tommy Sugiarto is even worse. Bobian, Liem Swie King now kpkb why Indonesia 21 years no All England men's singles champion. Totally unacceptable for a badminton nation.
