JTTA has not yet decided on the composition of the team ....

Deadline: Friday, October 4.

Ishikawa will make the lineup. Zennoh is the title sponsor.

Deadline: Friday, October 4.

Ishikawa will make the lineup. Zennoh is the title sponsor.

Each team can enter 5 players. I am sure the JNT lineup will include Ishikawa regardless of the sponsor.

 

[Jacky Kwok]

Basically JNT women’s team lineup must include Ishikawa, Ito, and Hirano. The remaining 2 spots will probably be among Sato, Hayata, Kato, and Shibata.

I was poking fun at my idol.

Why only 4 female players ????

 

[Jacky Kwok]

Maybe they haven’t decided the 5th player?

And quite surprised to see Jin Takuya.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

I’m also surprised to see Niwa at the bottom of the list although he’s got a good WR ranking

Poor draws for Japan, both men and women.

 

[Vlad Celler]

Yes ... Few points can be scored in a group .... Plus ITTF reduced the number of points for winning singles ....
