Saina Nehwal produced a superlative performance on Friday to overcome Japanese superstar Nozomi Okuhara 21-18, 23-21 to enter the semi-finals of the Malaysia Masters 2019. The straight-game victory over the higher-seeded Japanese was even more sweeter with Saina having to fight back from being 9-15 and 14-18 down in the two respective games.

The Indian star, who had won the title in Malaysia in 2017 and was a runners-up in the 2011 edition, will face three-time world champion Carolina Marin of Spain on Saturday.
