Jordan and Oktavianti used the quick shuttle speed to their advantage as they peppered the top seeds – in particular, Zheng on the midcourt who was often court off guard and forced into errors.
The 18-21 21-16 22-20 victory was the Indonesian pair’s first over Zheng and Huang.
“We are very happy. We always try to fight in every match against them, and finally, we made it.
