At the WTT Oman Challenge, which began on February 27, the national table tennis team sent Wang Chuqin, Liang Jingkun and Chen Xingtong to lead a huge lineup led by three world champions, but for the current doubles lineup, it is still trying to match different and seek chemistry. The lineup of this challenge reveals two messages, one is to give more tilt to the young players, and the 18-year-old youngster Kuman will be in charge of 3 events and will be entrusted with heavy responsibilities! Second, in order to improve the strength of the doubles, more opportunities were given to the left-hand players. In addition to Ku man, the main players Wang Chuqin, Liang Jingkun and Chen Xingtong will also be in 3 events, of which Liang Jingkun / Wang Chuqin, the two world champions, play in men's doubles worth looking forward to!
Mixed doubles: Wang Chuqin/Chen Xingtong, Liang Jingkun/Ku man
Although Wang Chuqin / Sun Yingsha won the mixed doubles championship at the Houston World Table Tennis Championships, the national table tennis does not have a unique absolute strength in the mixed doubles event, at least at present, the world ranking No. 1 is still the Japanese combination of Mizutani Hayabusa / Ito Mishimasa, and the new combination Zhang Benzhi and / Hayata Hina still have 3 years to cooperate with the competition, maybe then the Paris Olympics is a big increase in strength. In addition, Lin Yunru / Zheng Yijing, Huang Zhenting / Du Kaixuan, Li Shangsu / Tian Zhixi and other combinations may occasionally break out to defeat the national table tennis.
Oman Challenge sent out are all brand new combinations, Chen Xingtong in the past two years to participate in less doubles competitions, mixed doubles almost rarely appeared, her style is biased to hold each other, near the front three boards are not advantages, and Wang Chuqin partner should play the advantage of the back, but the competition for the first three boards may have disadvantages; Ku Man and Fan Zhendong in the Macau mixed doubles performance is good, this time with Liang Jingkun, although it is an attempt, but also reflects the basic idea of national table tennis doubles, the current left hand players are very few, the women's team of Pu Man, Qian Tianyi and Wang Chuqin of the men's team were more heavily used because of their left-handed advantage.
Women's Doubles: Chen Xingtong / Qian Tianyi, Ku Man / Zhang Rui, Liu Weishan / He Zhuojia
Wang Manyu / Sun Yingsha won the World Table Tennis Championships for two consecutive times, but compared with the Japanese team, only a pair of fixed combinations is definitely not enough, from the performance of the temporary combination of Chen Meng / Qian Tianyi in the World Table Tennis Championships, there is still a gap with the Japanese fixed partner Ito Mimachi / Hayata Hina, Chen Meng's position is behind, not suitable for doubles, the focus should still be on the singles event.
In the combination of Chen Xingtong and Qian Tianyi, the two have good singles strength, hoping to spark the practice of the race and strive to become the second women's doubles of national table tennis. Zhang Rui / Kuman combination style is similar to Japan's Ito Mimachi / Hayata Hina, one left and one right is also a combination of raw glue and anti-glue, the most powerful women's doubles in this challenge should be this pair of players. Liu Weishan/He Zhuojia are two right hands, but He Zhuojia's raw glue is also competitive if it is powerful in doubles.
Men's Doubles: Liang Jingkun / Wang Chuqin, Cao Wei / Xu Yingbin, Lin Shidong / Xiang Peng
Due to Ma Long's old age and limited physical strength, Wang Chuqin's partner in doubles was gradually replaced by Fan Zhendong, but it was not fixed, and the World Table Tennis Championships lost to Sweden's Karlsson/Falke. Since Lin Gaoyuan / Liang Jingkun was also ranked No. 1 in the world, but never won the World Championship, this demolition pair was tested by Liang Jingkun / Wang Chuqin, if the championship is won, there may be hope of continuing to partner in the future, after all, both are the current main force of national table tennis.
Cao Wei / Xu Yingbin is an old partner in the national youth team as early as possible, and is also the bronze medalist in the men's doubles at last year's National Games, Xu Yingbin's successful breakthrough in macau has given him the opportunity to compete in one fell swoop, and the two are the most fixed pairs in the men's doubles 3 pairs, which is expected to bring surprises. Lin Shidong / Xiang Peng is the most anticipated young player in the national table tennis, this time the two join hands in the men's doubles competition, relative to singles, the two right-handed running positions may not be smooth, but the two young and energetic and have momentum, for their performance or wait and see!
