On September 28, at the World Championship team draw ceremony, Hina Hayata represented Japan in the draw, and the Japanese women's team was in the same group as Hungary, Poland and Uzbekistan.
On behalf of the Japanese team is Hayata Hina, not Ito Mimakoto, on strength, on honor, on status, Ito Mimachi is a sister of Japan, but there is no qualification to represent the team draw, if you rely on the world ranking to invite, it is understandable.
At the drawing ceremony, Hayata personally announced: "As the captain, I will lead the team to win medals", which makes it clear that the captain of the Japanese women's team has changed owners, and the previous captain was Ishikawa Yoshijun.
The appointment of the captain, it is the decision of the team. Hina Hayata replaced Yoshiharu Ishikawa as the new captain, not Mimachi Ito, in a sense, which is equivalent to what the Japanese table of tennis executives have already determined: "Hina Hayata is the top card of the Japanese team for quite some time to come." ”
What caused Ito to lose? Or to put Hina Hayata on the throne?
Xiao Yan felt that there were the following reasons:
First, Hina Hayata's strength is no weaker than Ito's.
In the international competition, although Ito Mimachi won the Kashiwa Olympic championship, after all, it is only a mixed doubles, and Hina Hayata is the singles champion of the Asian Championships, and in the domestic competition, Hina Hayata has also defeated Ito Mimachi many times.
Second, Hina Hayata is slightly better off than Ito Mimako.
As we all know, Ito Mimachi gives people a gloomy feeling on the field, and in her own words, her kind of appearance makes the children in the audience sit still. And Hina Hayata did not look like this, even if she lost, she was able to get by on the face.
Third, compared with Ito Mimako, Hina Hayata is still on the rise.
From the momentum of the two people, Itomi's honesty has entered the bottleneck, the innate lack of height, the limit of playing style, as Zhang Yining said, after the age of 20, she basically does not pose a threat to national table tennis. And Hayata's strength is on the rise, her physical condition is better than Ito's, and it is normal to choose someone with better development prospects as the captain.
At present, Hayata Hina is the sixth in the world, the Japanese team ranks first, or from the World Championships, Hayata Hina has been determined, and the Japanese team that will carry the flag in the future is her.
Ito Mimachi aims to win the championship, Hayata Hina aims to win the medal, and Hayata Hina is more pragmatic and closer to reality.
Some fans commented: Ito Mimachi is bitter!
