The day began with the last of the group stages.

Hosts Britain faced South Africa, with their individual champions on great form to see off their opponents.

A repeat of the women's individual final occurred between Lily Rhian Taylor and South African Alexa Pienaar, but Taylor triumphed again.

Britain's men's winner Owain Taylor also won against John Kuhn, as the hosts went into the semi finals with a 3-0 win.

Switzerland got off to a good start against Malaysia with individual bronze medallist, Shafiq Kamal, suffering a surprise defeat to Swiss player Robin Gadola.

Gadola was eliminated in the second round in the individual event.

Akia Azman and Sanjay Singh both won their matches in three games to allow Malaysia to progress with a 2-1 win.

Hong Kong qualified for the semi finals with a 3-0 win over Australia.

Silver medallist in the individual men’s tournament, Tsz Fung Yip, eased past Thomas Calvert as Li Sum Yin and Leung Chi Hin completed four game victories to send Hong Kong to the next stage.

France’s Edwin Clain stumbled against Jakub Solnicky of the Czech Republic but his team-mates managed to win, securing France’s place in the last four.

Auguste Dussourd faced Czech player David Zeman, whilst Julia Le Coq defeated Tereza Elznicova in only 19 minutes.

The first semi final pitted Malaysia against France.

Malaysia's Kamal recovered from his defeat earlier in the day to win against France's Dussourd in three games, 11-8, 11-6, 11-5.

The women’s second seed and bronze medallist in the individual event, Azman was forced to a four game victory after Le Coq took the first game.

The match lasted 39 minutes and finished 8-11, 13-11, 11-8, 11-9.

Addeen Idrakie was not required to play against Clain as Malaysia booked their place in the final.

The last match of the day saw a repeat of the men’s individual final as Masters took on Hong Kong’s Yip.

In a reversal of the individual final, top seed Yip beat Masters in five games, 11-8, 6-11, 8-11, 11-8, 11-8.

As Hong Kong took the first game, Grace Gear and Adam Auckland had to win their games to progress to the final.

Top women's seed Gear won in four games against Ka Wing Ho of Hong Kong.

Gear won the opening game, but dropped the second, after regaining her form in the third and fourth game.

Gear, who beat Ho in the fifth place play off in the individual tournament, prevailed 11-5, 6-11, 11-4, 12-10.

Britain’s Adam Auckland then won a straight game victory against Chi Him Wong to earn Britain’s place in the final.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better team, and it was a really good performance by everyone!” Auckland said.

Britain will play Malaysia in tomorrow’s team final.

“(We are) really happy, of course, to make a Final again,” said the Malaysian team.

“We are the defending champions from two years ago, so we are looking to get there one more time by taking it easy – and with no pressure!”
