NEW DELHI: World No 1 Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia beat India's Chetan Anand Buradagunta 21-11, 21-12 to reach the badminton singles final at the Commonwealth Games.
Lee took only 24 minutes to crush the home favorite on Tuesday, maintaining his eight-match unbeaten run against Buradagunta. He will next meet England's Rajiv Ouseph, who beat India's Kashyap Parupalli 19-21, 21-12, 21-18 in the other semifinal.
Lee said having beaten Buradagunta before, "I was under no pressure. My focus was on winning the match."
Parupalli lost a point to a controversial line call in the third game with scores leve 18-18. Parupalli was convinced the shuttle landed outside the sideline. He said the decision "cost the match."
