The Indian star got off to a good start, winning 4-0 and competing with Chen Meng for the right to qualify for the World Cup
On April 16, 2024, the table tennis World Cup in Macau continued, and the Indian star went crazy, Akula swept Poland's Natalia Bayo 4-0 and competed with the national table tennis Olympic champion Chen Meng for the right to qualify from the group.
Indian star Akula became famous at this year's World Table Tennis Championships, when he defeated Wang Yidi 3-0, which left a deep impression on many fans, and later had the experience of playing a tiebreaker with Wang Manyu.
Akula is the first time to participate in the World Cup, after the draw to settle Chen Meng, Bayo is in the 4th group, just before the end of the game, Chen Meng swept Bayo 4-0, the Polish player has limited ability, mainly to see Chen Meng and Akula's competition, you must know that the national table tennis has issued new rules, before the game can be said to give enough pressure, not to mention the competition for Olympic qualifications, there is no room for loss.
However, Akula and Bayo have to play first, Chen Meng truce to adjust, after the start of the game, Bayo in the first game is obviously not familiar with Akula's style of play, always want to take the initiative to increase the quality, but the error rate is too high and easy to get out, Akula took the lead 11-9, the key points are very firm, her performance this season is really eye-catching, and she won the women's singles championship some time ago, but the gold content is not high.
In the second game, Bayo didn't have any coping strategy, or used the previous rhythm, so he would definitely suffer a loss, he couldn't stand up, and it was difficult to deal with the opponent's serve, Akula won another game 11-6, and in the third game, Akula took advantage of the situation to chase, Bayo was a little collapsed, there was a gap in his own competitive level, and he was always on the point, Akula won the game 11-5, and it was very easy on the whole.
In the fourth game, Akula continued to lead, Bayo had no intention of fighting, and felt helpless about it, Akula blasted out 11-5 to end the game, and finally swept Bayo 4-0, the Indian star made a good start to the group stage, Akula's play is worth being vigilant about, because it is the same as Chen Meng to win 4-0, in this way, the two of them will compete for the right to qualify from the group, Chen Meng's comprehensive strength advantage is obvious, but it still can't be underestimated.
In the past, I really didn't expect to win the main force of national table tennis, but now not only Batra and Akula, but also the Mukherjee sisters are more well-known, so Chen Meng must prepare enough, of course, we also believe that she has no problem, she will definitely stand out and achieve good results in this event.
