The No.4 seeds were slow off the mark in their opening game versus Yantoni Edy Saputra and Marsheilla Gischa Islami as the Indonesians lead from
start to finish to grab the advantage. However, the England duo showed their class to wrest the next two games for a 20-22 21-13 21-15 victory.
“They are very talented and they played well. We were not quite on it today, maybe still recovering from last week but we’ve got a day off tomorrow and we will be back on Thursday,” said a relieved Gabby.
