Marin also had a similar story in her semifinal bout against third seed and world number 5 Chen Yufei. The Spaniard came from a set down to battle her way into the summit clash 17-21, 21-11, 23-21.

This is the second time in as many weeks Saina will be facing Marin and the Indian will look to reverse the result of the Malaysia Masters and win her first championship of the calendar year. Sunday's final appearance will be the second consecutive one for Saina and she will be keen on winning in Jakarta this time around. In last year's final, she came up against world number 1 Tai Tzu Ying.

For Marin, Saina will be the second Indian shuttler she squares off against in the tournament after having defeated PV Sindhu in the quarter-final 23-21, 21-7.

Sunday presents Saina the chance to correct an underwhelming 2018 where she won just one gold medal.
