SHAH ALAM: Men's singles shuttler Lee Zii Jia will miss out on the Asia Team Championships final against China on Sunday (Feb 18) due to a sinus problem, which is a huge blow to the team.

The world No. 10 missed the team's 3-1 win over Singapore in the quarter-finals on Friday (Feb 16) after he was hampered by the same issue but returned to inspire the team to victory by the same scoreline against Japan in the last four a day later.
