Sharapova had been bidding for a third grass-court title in Birmingham after victories in 2004 and 2005, but was beaten 6-4 6-4 by her Chinese opponent, the fourth seed.

The Russian, who had been unseeded after plunging down the rankings due to an injury lay-off, conceded six breaks of serve during a match which lasted an hour and 29 minutes.

Li, the highest-ranked player left in the competition, will face the winner of the semi-final between Magdalena Rybarikova and Sania Mirza in Sunday’s final.
