Earlier in the semi-finals, the Commonwealth Games gold medallist duo of Satwik and Chirag, seeded seventh, had overcome one-game deficit to beat unseeded Min Hyuk Kang and Seung Jae Seo of Korea 17-21 21-19 21-18 in a one hour 7 minutes long match to seal their maiden Super-1000 final berth.
"We feel really good the way we played today. They made a comeback in the third game but we stuck till the end and I am happy that we didn't run away from our tactics. We stuck to it till the very end. First time we are in a Super 1000 final and so it feels good," Chirag had said after the win.
This historic victory comes shortly after Satwik-Chirag had lost to the Malaysian pair in a Sudirman Cup match earlier this year.
