Saina made it clear that she had reached an age where it was not possible to withstand so much strain. On playing in the Asian meet, Saina said: “You have to understand that I still need time. I have played enough Uber Cups and every time I played I won all my matches,” Saina pointed out. But what is the point when people say “Saina lost” and “Saina is out of form”? I am not 20 any more… I have to keep myself fit to be able to play for long.
