:00:42. > :00:46.Welcome to highlights from the world indoor ball is Championships. We
:00:47. > :00:50.have action from the men's and women's singles. First up, if the
:00:51. > :00:55.ladies singles semifinals featuring the defending champion, Rebecca
:00:56. > :01:09.Field. Ladies and gentlemen, it is no folks very own Rebecca Field. --
:01:10. > :01:33.Norfolk's. Great strike. She's got it. She knows she hasn't pushed it.
:01:34. > :01:42.The defending champion is up against Scotland's Julie Forrest, while
:01:43. > :01:49.Alison Merrien Place Katherine Rednall in the other semi-final. The
:01:50. > :02:24.champ took the first set. Julie really needs to get that first
:02:25. > :02:33.ball. Close to the jack. It's not bad, but
:02:34. > :02:42.you just feel that she needs to be closer. The opening ball has been
:02:43. > :02:49.good. That's why she has taken a first set lead. I think basically
:02:50. > :02:59.Rebecca needs to work slightly on her second ball, it hasn't been
:03:00. > :03:01.helping her a lot so far. Let's see if we can get the second ball
:03:02. > :03:26.working, Rebecca. That's better, that's much better.
:03:27. > :03:31.He so often find in singles that the second or third ball is a problem
:03:32. > :03:38.for some players. It's like they concentrate 100% on the first. Yes,
:03:39. > :03:41.Rebecca plays a very good first ball but the second and third are not
:03:42. > :04:20.doing too much. Rebecca is sticking to her favourite
:04:21. > :04:37.side. It's all a matter of where it stops. Not bad there. I don't think
:04:38. > :04:40.she wanted it there. Once again, Julie doesn't have a real position
:04:41. > :04:59.to play a weak shot. The clock is going to run down pretty quickly
:05:00. > :05:11.now. Just a draw. She looks under here, I think. Rebecca, you are
:05:12. > :05:35.going to break the pattern of singles and score a double.
:05:36. > :06:03.That's why it. -- wide. One shot, Rebecca Field. That's 11 ends
:06:04. > :06:12.played, 11 singles. Have we ever had a game with singles and every single
:06:13. > :06:18.end? No. It hasn't happened. Are you sure? I'll just check. I got a new
:06:19. > :06:35.tablet for Christmas. You always managed to ask the
:06:36. > :08:07.difficult questions. a little bit but she isn't just not
:08:08. > :08:24.getting there. She needs to shake it up a little. I agree, she needs the
:08:25. > :08:25.other game. -- to up her. I just feel let Julie is chugging along in
:08:26. > :08:55.second gear. -- like. Opening two deliveries were close
:08:56. > :09:31.enough, now she is changing hand. -- weren't. She's got it.
:09:32. > :09:46.Struggling with pace with this one. A special opportunity. -- spare
:09:47. > :10:04.shot. That's a nice good highroad. A big
:10:05. > :10:10.chance with this one. It's going to be a measure for the first double.
:10:11. > :10:25.My feeling is we are heading for another single. That is very close.
:10:26. > :10:29.It is the bulge of the ball. When the ball is sitting down you
:10:30. > :10:36.normally go with the one that is got the bulge and that is the red one
:10:37. > :10:48.fall is to hard to tell. From my position looks just like one. I
:10:49. > :10:51.would put a measure on it, I really would. Two different coloured balls,
:10:52. > :11:34.as well, it's not always easy. One shot. We thought it was only the
:11:35. > :12:04.one on the rings. This is a lovely arena in Potters
:12:05. > :12:08.Leisure Resort. You can see the tournament office and press office
:12:09. > :12:13.at the top of your screen. Of course we are in darkness. We get a great
:12:14. > :13:07.view. I think that's the first time
:13:08. > :13:18.Rebecca has actually laid on the backside. Julie is forcing on the
:13:19. > :13:38.outside. -- forcing her onto the backhand side.
:13:39. > :14:02.Two good opening balls. We haven't seen too much of that. She hasn't
:14:03. > :14:25.played this site a lot. -- side. Julie needs another one in just
:14:26. > :14:28.behind the jack for cover. Julie is going really deep. I'm assuming that
:14:29. > :14:40.was deliberate. She was definitely trying to get back ball. It always
:14:41. > :14:46.helps to have the deepest ball. Rebecca is playing a more positive
:14:47. > :15:09.shot but I think she'll go under. That hasn't really helped. I think
:15:10. > :15:14.she is now two down. I think Julie just need to put another close ball
:15:15. > :15:32.in here. But the pressure on. She's got the back position. She is close
:15:33. > :15:46.here. This is good. Excellent ball. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
:15:47. > :15:59.You expect Rebecca to hit something here and take some of the balls out.
:16:00. > :16:03.A big drive, call it what you wish. I think she is close. She is close.
:16:04. > :16:21.She's getting something here. (APPLAUSE) that is the maximum. Here
:16:22. > :16:35.We Go. It's a target, all three balls go out. -- hits the target.
:16:36. > :16:39.That is a for Rebecca Field. I'm afraid Julie never really got going
:16:40. > :16:44.and the defending champion is back in the final. But who will Rebecca
:16:45. > :16:48.play? The other semi-final was between one of the established faces
:16:49. > :16:55.on the balls to, Alison Merrien, up against a relative new, , Katherine
:16:56. > :17:13.Rednall, and it was a schoolgirl who won the sat. -- set.
:17:14. > :17:23.Alison has decided to forego the backhand. That's a good change of
:17:24. > :18:07.tactic because Catherine was always going to play this side.
:18:08. > :18:18.Very quick action for Katherine. She doesn't waste any time. A few
:18:19. > :18:36.bowlers could learn from that. (APPLAUSE) You can see Julie Potter
:18:37. > :18:49.just in the background there in her usual seat.
:18:50. > :19:03.Well played. A little bit unlucky. Pushed a Radwanska with it. --
:19:04. > :19:18.Reddit -- red one through. Goodness, she is quick. Just lacking that two
:19:19. > :19:33.feet. It would have been a really good ball as it managed to slide in
:19:34. > :19:48.there. That slightly favour is red. -- favourites.
:19:49. > :20:20.Just a draw. It's all down to wait. This is a good spare shot
:20:21. > :20:26.opportunity. Stretch for a way of little but if she gets a double. A
:20:27. > :20:30.gap of three shots. You can virtually carry a shot forward. She
:20:31. > :20:36.will be disappointed not to score here. Her parents wouldn't be happy
:20:37. > :20:55.either, to see her not scoring another. A chance for a double here.
:20:56. > :21:09.Looking good. Yes. Definitely secures the shot. It's good for two.
:21:10. > :21:10.She is certainly putting her very experienced opponent under a lot of
:21:11. > :23:35.pressure. A perfect delivery. Alison has to be really careful
:23:36. > :23:52.here. Any movement on the jack is not going to be to her advantage.
:23:53. > :24:24.That's why she's dropped the shot, frightened to go near the head. This
:24:25. > :24:46.is just a draw here for Katherine. She is very close here. Well played.
:24:47. > :25:00.It pushed the ball onto the jack to a red ball. A very confident shot
:25:01. > :25:03.for such a young girl. Alison is looking at this on a forehand to try
:25:04. > :25:24.and see if she can edge the green ball onto the jack. It's not easy
:25:25. > :25:32.either way. A difficult shot. She is playing the backhand, it can only be
:25:33. > :25:37.a draw. It certainly looks to be a narrow line, but if the weight
:25:38. > :25:53.doesn't work out she will ever get it back. Obviously wasn't confident
:25:54. > :26:20.in the forehand. It back -- back to Katherine Rednall.
:26:21. > :26:32.She will effectively be forcing her opponent to score four shots in the
:26:33. > :26:48.last hand. This is exactly what it wants. -- you want. She really needs
:26:49. > :27:02.to get at least one shot here. I agree. If Katherine scores here she
:27:03. > :27:19.is almost in the final. Well played. Just got the wrong angle.
:27:20. > :27:42.It could be a Suffolk V Norfolk final. I'm sure the crowd would love
:27:43. > :28:07.to see that. Good effort, just the wrong side.
:28:08. > :28:26.Anything behind the jack to the green ball would be good. It has a
:28:27. > :28:36.bit of what to do to come back. -- work. It is an awkward situation
:28:37. > :28:44.here. She is going strong at it. Again she has pulled that one. Not
:28:45. > :28:57.even able to take the red ball out. It was a long way away from her
:28:58. > :29:05.standards. In many ways, there hasn't been the right set of balls.
:29:06. > :29:20.Once again not sure where to put the last ball. It's not a bad ball.
:29:21. > :29:29.Realistically, anything down there is good. She is going on for the
:29:30. > :29:41.kill if she is going to get the double to take the match. A gutsy
:29:42. > :29:57.option. Here it comes. Another way to get there. It's only the one. She
:29:58. > :30:10.is forcing Alison to play a difficult shot here. I think she has
:30:11. > :30:39.to be positive here. You have to take a gamble here, Alison. Choice
:30:40. > :31:10.of shops probably correct. It should be a single. Going well. Can't relax
:31:11. > :31:20.just yet. Katherine Rednall will just have to keep going. While
:31:21. > :31:27.Alison Merren traced to get ahead. She's shaking her head. She is short
:31:28. > :31:33.of the jack. It was 28 she was looking for. With this opening ball
:31:34. > :31:38.I don't think she would be concerned. That's a good start. A
:31:39. > :32:29.very good start. Another one just for safety. We'll
:32:30. > :32:35.have to see what Alison Merren does. Katherine Rednall will run for
:32:36. > :32:44.cover. Katherine Rednall has played very well. She has played a good
:32:45. > :32:56.game. Alison Merren must keep this ball on aim. She is faced with a
:32:57. > :33:06.difficult shot. She is trying to get there with a forehand. Just dropping
:33:07. > :33:24.on the ball. No points for guessing where this will be going. There she
:33:25. > :33:42.goes. There is no doubting the tactical knowledge of the 18
:33:43. > :33:46.-year-old. A very mature match. If she is going to drive it, she is
:33:47. > :33:53.going very straight. She can't afford to lose a ball. This one has
:33:54. > :34:05.to be in the area. There is no chance. Not of getting a four out of
:34:06. > :34:10.this. Mention you want, it doesn't matter, it won't happen. Katherine
:34:11. > :34:23.Rednall could put this ball anywhere. There just isn't four
:34:24. > :34:30.here. Let's go down to the two green ones. A great feeling to think that
:34:31. > :34:35.your opponent is going to struggle to make four. She is just popping
:34:36. > :34:45.eating in front. There she goes. That will block off that. Alison
:34:46. > :34:56.Merren has nothing to play to get four. Well, Katherine Rednall,
:34:57. > :35:05.congratulations. Very difficult for Alison Merren. Taking time and
:35:06. > :35:17.rightly so. There is nothing there for her. I just can't see anything.
:35:18. > :35:32.There is nothing there. There is no where the green ball is getting past
:35:33. > :35:40.the red. The situation in this just draw the ball down. I think Alison
:35:41. > :35:52.Merren realises that. She is playing through it, but she knows she won't
:35:53. > :35:57.score a four. A smile from the 18 -year-old. A really professional
:35:58. > :36:06.performance. Played a lovely game of balls. Mum and dad very happy
:36:07. > :36:19.people. What a great day it was for
:36:20. > :36:26.Katherine Rednall. A youngest ever line up for the final. 18 -year-old
:36:27. > :36:33.Katherine Rednall against 28 year old Rebecca. Now we switch attention
:36:34. > :36:38.to the men's singles competition. First up the defending champion
:36:39. > :37:41.Stewart Anderson against Robert Weale.
:37:42. > :37:47.Both players are just feeling full-length at the moment. It's
:37:48. > :37:51.really important for Robert Weale to get at least one of the first two
:37:52. > :38:47.close. It is a better ball. He's not happy being a away.
:38:48. > :38:56.Standards are high. He has been allowed a little bit too much space.
:38:57. > :39:24.Ten inches away. That's pretty good by the sounds of it. Still some
:39:25. > :39:45.romantic yet another shot. Swapping onto the forehand side now.
:39:46. > :40:12.FI was Robert Weale, I would pick a side and stick to it. It is very
:40:13. > :40:23.difficult. There is a happy dog. It's actually a highly trained
:40:24. > :40:48.working dog. He likes to relax. Two out. I always like to see a cuddly
:40:49. > :40:59.labrador. Everyone is a sucker for it a fluffy dog. At the moment, I
:41:00. > :41:07.think the dog is a bit too relaxed. Like Robert, he needs to add a bit
:41:08. > :41:15.of weight to his game. Certainly making my addiction looks sick about
:41:16. > :41:24.a tie-break. -- prediction. Need to get a rottweiler in. Very difficult
:41:25. > :41:29.when he is just searching for the weight. Just give in it too much
:41:30. > :42:27.room. He is making it count. Alarm bells
:42:28. > :42:50.ringing for Robert Weale. He needs to start to compete. Once again, he
:42:51. > :43:07.plays a decent ball, but it is a delivery too late. Unusual to see
:43:08. > :43:15.players coming up. Just looking at the angle to see if he touches his
:43:16. > :43:20.own ball were the jack will go. Please now have learned how to use
:43:21. > :43:27.the shuttlecock to their own advantage. There was a time when
:43:28. > :43:31.they won't allow it up after the second ball. Now they are prepared
:43:32. > :43:42.to come up as long as they trot back in time.
:43:43. > :43:59.With the forehand looks at key is going with weight. Here it goes. He
:44:00. > :44:16.pushed it out wide. I don't think he is comfortable. Stewart Anderson
:44:17. > :44:23.will take advantage of every opportunity. The couple ball going
:44:24. > :44:29.on now. He's just rang to the scoreboard ticking over. Has to get
:44:30. > :44:46.past the green towards the rest of position. That should be close
:44:47. > :44:51.enough. He doesn't want to be white. He will take the Greenaway. With
:44:52. > :45:08.looking at is there. If the jack bounces, it could come off on the
:45:09. > :45:25.respawn. He doesn't need a lot of weight.
:45:26. > :45:40.It still looks wide. He doesn't want the green ball. Dear me. There is
:45:41. > :46:02.always the risk of running ball. It is a horrible results.
:46:03. > :46:05.Well done to Stewart Anderson. He is through to the quarter-finals with
:46:06. > :46:34.the defeat of Robert Weale. As we have seen, he is through to
:46:35. > :46:36.the quarter-finals. Who will he play? Will it he the former champion
:46:37. > :47:32.Greg Harlow Barrett Darren Burnett. There we are. Maybe it is a better
:47:33. > :47:37.shot for him. He would have to be lucky off that. He produced and up
:47:38. > :47:54.immediately, but it will still heart. Funny old game. There's
:47:55. > :47:58.nothing he could do that. You called that he would have to be lucky as
:47:59. > :48:13.well. My goodness, he has given great a bit of a worry here. Only
:48:14. > :48:27.one shot required. I just wonder if he will try draw this. He is really
:48:28. > :48:35.only left with a door. He has put the door behind him. He can
:48:36. > :48:50.definitely hit it. He is to get the jack to the other side. He prefers
:48:51. > :48:58.forehand this type of shot a big effort. A big effort if he holds. He
:48:59. > :49:36.has dropped away. How unlucky is that? A bit of fortune for Burnett.
:49:37. > :49:39.Black fortune for Greg Harlow. If you are in Darren Burnett shoes, you
:49:40. > :49:56.would think it might be night. Just might your night. Darren Burnett for
:49:57. > :50:09.the third time delivered the jack. It was given by Darren Burnett on
:50:10. > :50:14.two occasions. A fascinating game. Very much Darren Burnett in the
:50:15. > :50:20.first set. Then it swung back to Greg Harlow in the second. Now we
:50:21. > :51:32.are in a shootout for a place in the quarter-final. Still plenty of room.
:51:33. > :52:04.Still one red. Available either side for great. -- Greg Harlow.
:52:05. > :52:24.It is not there. Options here for Darren. Busy try and remove the red
:52:25. > :52:29.sidewall? If he removes it... Oh, he is going for the drive. This is the
:52:30. > :52:40.time when you can drive. If he kills it, he is in the area. That is good
:52:41. > :52:49.enough. You are only allowed to kill it once. I'm surprised he played
:52:50. > :53:06.that. It looked very draw a ball. -- drawable. Any time in the match you
:53:07. > :53:10.are allowed to do it. He used to be in the past that you could do it all
:53:11. > :53:27.the time. The respot position has changed that. It's in the time where
:53:28. > :53:29.you can actually do it. He was just carrying the green one down. Kept it
:53:30. > :53:55.in his hand. Greg Harlow taking the option of a
:53:56. > :54:03.24 metre jack length. He feels confidence that he can get there.
:54:04. > :54:13.Last end of the tie-break. Intriguing match. Last time we
:54:14. > :54:41.played, he killed it. He is not allowed to kill any more. He has
:54:42. > :54:54.used that option. It is always a bit of a gamble. Gtech the jack of given
:54:55. > :55:03.away and get the last ball? It's a big opportunity now. I think it's
:55:04. > :55:12.fair to say that he would have been a favourite coming into this match.
:55:13. > :55:23.He is very dangerous opponent. Loads of experience.
:55:24. > :55:44.He is going to drive for the jack as well. Looks like the ball. Oh, he
:55:45. > :55:54.dipped in so quickly there. I thought he was just inside. He is in
:55:55. > :55:58.a bit of trouble now. He can still nominate to burn the end. It doesn't
:55:59. > :56:05.matter how meat and you nominate. You in the allowed to actually
:56:06. > :56:09.completed once. Darren Burnett has already done that. The back decision
:56:10. > :56:19.is all mixed up. He has the deepest green. He just has to try get inside
:56:20. > :56:25.this red ball. Metre past it. Stop Greg Harlow ticking it out. A
:56:26. > :56:36.thinking it is one in there. Doesn't want it to close. If he gets just
:56:37. > :56:48.inside, it is a good war. I think it's going to drop in for a second.
:56:49. > :56:59.It wouldn't be a bad option if he got onto the respawn. It's not easy
:57:00. > :57:07.to beat. Time out. I haven't heard him nominate again for the drive. He
:57:08. > :57:24.just has. Going again. To be honest, I think is best option is the kill.
:57:25. > :57:33.He was very close last time. He has got the ball. Took his own way.
:57:34. > :57:44.Darren Burnett takes the third end of the tie-break. The current
:57:45. > :57:47.champion. A good win for Darren Burnett. Greg Harlow will be
:57:48. > :57:53.disappointed. At the tie-break, anything is possible. He is now
:57:54. > :57:58.through to the quarter-finals where the defending champion Stewart
:57:59. > :58:13.Anderson awaits. Here's what we have up later...
:58:14. > :58:19.It has been a good death of the defending champions in both men's
:58:20. > :58:25.and ladies College. What's more to come. Sison.
