The Dutch, who have enjoyed a resurgence in form, looked dominant making the final in just 30 mins play 21-15 21-15.

"We had a very hard draw this week so it was always going to be tough for us and we didn't really expect to be in the final" commented Samantha Barning after their win.

"It will be a tough match in the final against the Japanese as they like to play long rallies so we will be prepared to be on court for more than 1 hour and patience will be the key."
