  2. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    By rule, the team/coach has priority for timeout in team competitions and the individual does in singles competitions. So if he called the time out and his player didn't agree, then the coach betrayed his responsibility to the team by listening to the player or not knowing the rules.
  3. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    He is not allowed to in a team competition. So it is still the coach's mistake.

    For some matches yes, but this is not universally true. It was noticeable for the finals and semis but wasn't the case in the earlier rounds.

    Looks like they didn't field Lin Gaoyuan for Men's singles even though they had him for men's teams. It is WCQ, LJK, LSD. XP and XYB. What i also find interesting is that it is too late to replace SYS and WYD team with WYD and SXY. I wonder whether they would have done it if they could have...

    Most players who did well in 2016 have retired now. No one at their peak then is at their peak now.

    There were lots of rumors after Tokyo, even including that the CNT kept XX and ML from coming to the USA. In the end, you just have to look at the big picture as more facts come in.

    By the way, this officially kills the Harimoto is alone meme. Whether you believe the matches should have been that close or not, Togami came through in flying colors against motivated and underrated opponents.

    I doubt anyone forced FZD to retire, in fact, his break during this period of the year gives a slightly different perspective to ML's similar break after the 2021 Olympics, with the caveat that ML's break coincided with a WTTC. If FZD decides to play again, it will be a rejuvenated FZD, the guy...

    It's one thing if he had been winning points with such serves all through the match, but missing the serve completely was a pure indication of nervousness and not acknowledging that with a timeout is a sign that both him and his coach didn't really believe in their ability to win.
  11. dignics 05 vs. 09c.

    He was wrong. D09c is definitely harder, even if the Dignics sponge is common to both.

    When he served off the table at 10-8, I knew he was done. Trying to even serve long in that moment was just not trusting yourself. That was when he should have taken his time out. And he served half long at 10-9 and expected WCQ not to loop the serve? Was he serious? And then he uses the...

    What Lin Shidong has done for the stability of the CNT has grown in infinite stature with this match going the way it is...
  14. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    So many CNT stalwarts have taken trips into the basement in this tournament... Liang has gone from often hero to fat zero in two teams matches...

    Nah, Hirano wore out Shin Yubin for Hayata. Remember, Hirano saves heaven and earth at all times.
  16. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    Anyone have a link to the men's team final?
  17. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    I disagree, watching the match, Yoshimura never found the balance between risk and reward and it hurt Odo as well.
  18. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    There were enough changes in between the events that lacking preparation introduces some risks. I suspect if Wang Manyu had been able to play, these things would all be far less discussed. But they have time to play themselves into form and learn. It is just unfortunate that SYS has been...
