MEN’S doubles act Noraizat Nordin and Aidil Aiman Zawawi wanted badly to deliver the perfect birthday gift for their sepaktakraw coach Suhaimi Yusof but the Indonesians spoiled their party.

Noraizat-Aidil were primed for a gold but lost 1-2 (16-21, 21-16, 13-21) to Saiful Rijal and Hardiansyah Muliang in the final at the National Olympic Training Center yesterday.
