: National squash player Aira Azman turned 19 today and her birthday wish is to help Malaysia strike gold in the women's team final against defending champions Hong Kong tomorrow.

That would also be a perfect way for the World Junior Championships runner-up to mark her Asian Games debut. “I just hope that we'll do well in the team final. There’s no pressure, so just do well,” she said when met at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Squash Court. In today's semi-finals, the national women’s team downed South Korea 2-0 while Hong Kong edged India 2-1.

Though Aira didn’t play today and also in yesterday’s last Group B fixture against India, she did contribute points to the team by winning her matches against Nepal, Pakistan and Macao.
