In the women's table tennis team showdown between Shanghai Dragons and Shanghai Huadong, Stage 2 will witness an exciting match. It is worth mentioning that both teams have a close relationship with table tennis sensation Sun Yingsha. Shanghai Dragons not only owns Sun Yingsha, but has also absorbed a number of players from the Hebei team, including National Games teammates He Zhuojia and Sun Mingyang. Sun herself will be supporting Wang Xiaotong in the national team tournament. On the other hand, Shanghai Huadong's national team friend Wang Yidi's joining the team makes the outcome of the match full of variables.
Shenzhen University and Chengdu Hi-Tech faced off on the table tennis court, with the matchup coming on stage three. Although the tournament may not seem too suspenseful, Sun Yingsha's debut certainly adds color to the match. She will lead her team to challenge Chengdu's Aumann and Empower Xuan. However, the overall strength of Chengdu team is weak, Yuan Yuan and Shenzhen University's strength gap is obvious, the road to win the championship may not be smooth. It is worth mentioning that Shenzhen University has not registered Chen Meng this year, so the difficulty of winning the championship is evident.
The men's team match between Shantou and Jiangsu is about to get underway, with Teruko Matsushima set to challenge Shandong Weiqiao's Wang Chuqin, Liang Jingmiao and Lin Gaoyuan in two consecutive nights of action. This season's Table Tennis Premier League is undoubtedly a valuable learning and training opportunity for the young Japanese player.
The confrontation between Shenzhen Baoan and Huangshi Men's Team, as well as the match between Shijiazhuang Shangti and Sichuan Fenggu, are also worth watching. In these two matchups, Shenzhen Baoan's Ahn Jae-hyun will challenge the two rising national stars Lin Sidong and Xiang Peng. And Zhou Yu of Shijiazhuang Shangti and Huang Zhenting of Sichuan Fenggu will be the focus of the match.
