Misbun plays a very bizarre game against ironman Icuk.
First he plays a mistake prone game in set 1 presumably with the famous Stadium Negara wind behind him, At one time trailing 0-13.
He follows it with a furious 2nd game which he won and continued the same pace in the first half of the final game only to succumb
to exhaustion in the last half. Perhaps he is playing to the crowd, demanding him to play till he drops without a game plan and not playing to win.
Icuk is the same player who got a famous 15-0 thrashing by Frost in the 1987 All England Final.
Going by the playing style,strokes and fitness level of Misbun as a player it is difficult to see how Lee Chong Wei has taken after him,
perhaps mainly earlier in his career before Li Mao was roped in followed later with Rashid Sidek and Hendrawan. LCW is simply a concoction of himself and some of all his coaches’ inputs and experience.In fact LCW plays a lot more like Icuk but with some menacing smashes and deft netplay added in,probably modelled after some other famous players and is very much more efficient as a player and athlete and optimises his energy with economical strokes and movements.
The player that most resembles and influenced by Misbun's playing style has to be Hafiz Hashim .
Misbun Sidek probably helped Lee Chong Wai more as a trainer and coach rather than a role model or sifu.
