As the main opponent in Asia, the Japanese women's volleyball team is so teamed up, how will the Chinese women's volleyball team arrange it? Comprehensive analysis of various situations, the Chinese women's volleyball team will not send two teams, will definitely use a set of lineups to finish the Asian Games and the World Championships. The specific reasons are as follows.
Cai Binzhi won the Asian Games
First, the Chinese women's volleyball team aims to win the Asian Games. At the beginning of his tenure, coach Cai Bin clearly stated that the goal of this year's Hangzhou Asian Games is to ensure the championship. The reason why Cai Bin set this goal, in addition to the Asian Games is at the doorstep of the game, not to win the championship can not be said to be the factor, the more critical is that the Asian Games is his first formal examination after regaining control of the women's volleyball team, the position of the Chinese women's volleyball team in Asia can not be lost. To ensure that the Asian Games win the championship, Cai Bin will definitely arrange the full main lineup to play.
Second, the Chinese women's volleyball Asian Games is the home battle, there is no problem of boat and car fatigue and inverted jet lag, it is completely possible to let the main players practice in the race, warm up in advance for the World Championships, run into the lineup, and find the state.

Third, the timing of the Asian Games and the World Championships is not completely in conflict. The Hangzhou Asian Games will be held from September 10 to 25, while the Women's Volleyball World Championship will be held from September 23 to October 15. From the perspective of time, the two competitions are definitely in conflict, and the Asian Games have not yet ended, and the World Championships have already begun. But don't forget that the Hangzhou Asian Games women's volleyball team competition time is advanced, September 8 whistle, September 15 to determine the champion and runner-up. In this way, after playing the Asian Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team still has a week to rest from the World Championships, and after a slight adjustment in Hangzhou, it directly flew to the Netherlands to compete in the World Championships. Therefore, when time permits, the Chinese women's volleyball team does not need to form two teams at all, which will compete in the Asian Games and the World Championships.
