Ultimate Table Tennis 4 | Bengaluru Smashers, Dabang Delhi TTC aim first win
Bengaluru Smashers and Dabang Delhi TTC will look to register their first victory in the ongoing Ultimate Table Tennis Season 4 at the Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex, in Pune on Tuesday. Smashers suffered defeat against U Mumba TT in their opening tie while Dabang Delhi lost to Goa Challengers.
The franchise-based league, promoted by Niraj Bajaj and Vita Dani under the auspices of the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI), has been a game-changer for Indian table tennis since its inception in 2017.
Bengaluru Smasher is spearheaded by Indian star Manika Batra, whereas Kirill Gerassimenko and Natalia Bajor bring international experience into the squad. Sanil Shetty will also look to improve his performance in the upcoming tie.
"There are a lot of new faces in our franchise in Season 4 and it has been a thrilling experience to play with them so far. All of the members of the squad are really talented. Bengaluru Smashers will give their best in every tie including the next one against Dabang Delhi TTC," commented Batra ahead of the tie.
On the other hand, Dabang Delhi TTC has experienced campaigner Sathiyan Gnanasekaran in the squad, while Sreeja Akula and Ayhika Mukherjee aim to bring their A-game to the table.
Akula said, "Our franchise played well in the last tie despite the defeat against Goa Challengers. It was our first tie in Season 4, so, we will look to do better in the next tie against Bengaluru Smashers. We will work on our mistakes and do better in the upcoming tie on Tuesday."
Barbora Balazova and Jon Persson bring international flavour to the franchise. All the ties start at 7.30 PM with broadcast on Sports 18 and streamed on JioCinema. The tickets will be available on BookMyShow.
