On May 17, Beijing time, the Indian Table Tennis Association officially announced the lineup to participate in the Paris Olympics through the media platform, and the Olympic table tennis event will start on July 27 and end on August 10!
Name of the competition: Table tennis at the Paris Olympics
Competition time: July 27 - August 10
Competition items: mixed doubles, women's singles, men's singles, men's team, women's team, a total of 5 events
List of Indian teams:
Men's singles 2: Salas Kamal Achanta and Hamet Desai
Women's singles 2 players: Manica Batra, Sliga Akula
The list of men's team is 3 people: Shalas Kamal Achanta, Hamet Desai, Manaf Vikashi Takka
The list of 3 members of the women's group: Manica Batra, Sliga Akula, and Azana Girish Kamas
Men's team substitute 1: Shatian Nanasekaran
One substitute for the women's team: Aishka Mukherjee
In men's singles, because each association can only be selected for 2 people, so the four Indian celebrities also launched a fierce competition, and finally Achanta and Desai were shortlisted, and Taka got the qualification for the third person in the team. It's a pity that the former star Nanasekaran only got a chance to participate as a substitute this time!
In women's singles, Batra and Akula 2 granular players were shortlisted, of which Batra is a fierce rival that has suddenly risen in the past 2 years of national table tennis, especially the Grand Slam some time ago that defeated Wang Manyu, which directly made the eels lose the opportunity to compete for the Olympic singles qualification!
Therefore, as a national table tennis, we have to guard against it. The third member of the girl group was won by Kamaz. In this Olympic Games, the Indian team only registered for 4 events, and did not register for the mixed doubles event, which is still a pity at this point!
