PETALING JAYA: Para shuttlers Cheah Liek Hou-Fareez Anuar exacted sweet revenge over Indonesia’s Dheva Anrimusthi-Hafizh Brilliansyah to reach the final of the World Championships.

Liek Hou-Fareez lost to Dheva-Hafizh in the last four of the men’s doubles SU5 (upper body impairment) in the Asian Para Games last October but turned the tables on them at the same stage in the world meet with a hard fought 21-11, 19-21, 21-10 win in Pattaya yesterday.
