Aryna Sabalenka and Ashleigh Barty will clash for a place in the final in Wuhan.
Sabalenka
The Belorussian is playing a fantastic tennis and she imposed his rhythm in the quarter-final against an in-form Dominika Cibulkova 7-5 6-3. Aryna has also impressed in the 2nd round after she defeated Elina Svitolina to claim her 7th top10 scalp since June.
Barty
Ranked no.17, Ashleigh got to the semifinal after winning an extremely complicated quarter against Pavlyuchenkova that was leading 3-2 (1 break up) in the decider. Eventually, the Australian managed to find the solution and win 6-2 5-7 6-4.
Aryna Sabalenka vs. Ashleigh Barty H2H
Aryna and Ashleigh have played only once at the beginning of this year in the Australian Open 1st round when Barty won 6-7 (2) 6-4 6-4. Sabalenka is probably the favorite to get this one.
They are scheduled to play on Friday 6.30pm
