Women’s Doubles duo Nina Vislova-Valeria Sorokina stretched its winning streak in quarter-final round of Russian National Championships and paved path to semi-finals on January 30, 2013.

The top seeded pair was up against a compatriot team Olga Morozova-Natalia Rogov and this meeting prolonged to 22 minutes before ending with final figures of 21-14 and 21-9.

With this splendid straight-set victory, Nina and Valeria setup their next clash with a spirited duo Komendrovskaya-Maria Shegurova.

In the round of eight, both prime female shuttlers showed superb coordination and locked the honour in just two games.

They set the foundation of their dominance straight away in the opening game and enjoyed an upper hand throughout this match.

In first set of the match, Nina and Valeria did not give their challengers enough time to get settled and established an unassailable lead in no time.

They bagged many valuable points without any interruption and strengthened their grip by registering a mountainous figure of 11 before the interval.

After the mid-game break, they lost focus for a short span of time and allowed the opposing team to narrow the gap on points table.

However, few back-to-back productive rallies helped them to reinstate their supremacy. They played with great precision in third quarter of the set and raised their chances of success.

Though, the twosome of Olga and Natalia made every effort to tip the scale in its favour but both Russian campaigners had to surrender after reading 14-21 score on the board.

The following game was also sheer disappointment for them as Nina-Valeria did not make even a single mistake and transformed their 1-0 lead into a straight-set victory.

They gained a significant advantage immediately in the establishing rallies and then maintained that difference until the winning margin of 21-9.
