The fourth game began, and the "Sha-Ru" pair was backed into a corner, yet the Anime pair kept pressing relentlessly.
After taking an early 5-2 lead, Lin Shidong pounced on a transition ball generated by Kuai Man's tactical play, retreating to deliver a cracking forehand smash right to the baseline. The body-jamming shot flew straight at Shasha, widening the gap to four points.
Yet the "Sha-Ru" pair remained fiercely resilient. Lin Yun-ju returned serve with a backhand side-swipe, and Shasha counter-looped down the middle, snatching two consecutive points to bring the score to 4-6.
