Hirano making a strong case here for why she was chosen as the third team member. DN is outdoing Ishikawa-senpai here.

Lol I might have misheard but Li Sun told SYS that she doesn't have to make spinny shots? That's like the worst insult to the opponent ever?

CNT coaches (minus Xiao Zhan): Shibata please defeat WMY so that we will stop getting slammed for dropping her from the WTTTC lineup.

Speaking of idol, Ishikawa-senpai...

Apparently Hayata withdrew due to an "injury". Hmm.

Most condescending nickname of all time goes to Fukuhara = 瓷娃娃 aka Porcelain Doll (weak and brittle) but nobody calls this out (except the Japanese player herself) because of the cutesy connotations that come with being doll-like ~

In an interesting twist of fate, the most promising young Japanese male players (Harimoto, Uda, Togami) have all crashed out while the two least hopeful (Niwa, Mizutani) are still in. Or is this Oikawa's time to shine? The first half of women's Singles will surely be bled red (7 out of 8 are...

Doo is getting thrashed, even the Swedish Open 2018 WS Finals ZYL did better than her. Gasp.

Yay, SG's top paddler got one game ~

Oh dear, LGY proving the coaches' allegations right. He had trouble receiving Hayata's serves, and now Ito's. No WTTTC for him now ~ On the other hand, did XX/LSW stomp Szudi/Pergel because they saw Bence Majoros' response to ITTF's IG post asking for a better XD pair than the current World...

CNT: No more training collaborations with Team USA! 养狼计划取消！

Will probably go with Mizutanito for this. These two pairs are quite similar IMO; the male players play with more spin while the female players pack the punches but the Japanese should have an advantage in terms of chemistry.

Hopefully we can see Ishikawa/Hirano vs Ding Ning/Sun Yingsha. Both pairs are in similar predicaments – the lefties who also happen to be captains of their respective teams are usually the ones who don't perform as well while the righties are the younger, swifter and more explosive ones.

China donning their new jerseys for 2020. Seems like Japan is the only other country which also comes up with new designs. Can't wait to see theirs too ~

I wanna watch her play Zhu Yuling. Both of them should be fairly confident at the moment after winning nearly everyone in their respective associations.

It's there.

She reminds me of Li Jiawei, except she serves like Shan Xiaona instead of her BH.
