Re: ITF Team Juniors (u16 Davis/Fed Cup, u14 World Jun. Tennis)

^^ Most of our top guys have played these under 14 team tournments- Ramk, Sumit, Yuki were all part of those teams ( go back and check this same thread).

Not sure about players from other countries but I am quite sure quite a few would have played these age group tournaments.

Re: Indian Table Tennis Thread ...

Sreeja Akula is now ranked at a career high of #40 this week and for the first time we have 2 Indian women in top 40.

Today, Manika Batra lost in a very close match against world #6 Japanese in 5 games in WTT champions Intanon, South Korea. Our women players seem to be getting better and better.

Re: ITF Team Juniors (u16 Davis/Fed Cup, u14 World Jun. Tennis)

Our boys under 14 team are doing much better this week. They have reached the SF. Beat China in group stage, lost to Japan to finish second i...

Re: BWF tournaments Mar 2024

Yes, I also read chatter that Gayatri is more suitable for mixed doubles as she has good net game and not such strong back court game. In that case, she can probably look at having a good male partner and go for mixed doubles where we do not have any strong pair as of now and Tresa-Tanisha can pair ...

Re: BWF tournaments Mar 2024

Yes, at one point of time, I thought Tresa-Gayatri are at a stage now where Satwik-Chirag were at the Tokyo olympics i.e threatening the top teams but not quite there yet. But, in the last few weeks they have totally lost it. After Paris Olympics, our coached need to figure out if it would be better...

Srikanth lost 18-21 in third game in the SF against Taiwanese. So, that is it for us at Swiss open.

Re: BWF tournaments Mar 2024

Bad day for us at Swiss open with only Srikanth winning his match, Priyanshu and Kiran lost to higher ranked players. Most disappointing was Tresa- Gayatri loss to an Australian pair.

Their chances of Paris qualification are much lower now.
