Dabang Delhi TTC: U Mumba TT will have their sights set on a semi-final berth when they take on playoffs-bound Dabang Delhi TTC in the Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT) on Thursday. There is a lot on the line for Delhi, too, who are aiming to become the first team in history to pass through the league stage unbeaten.
U Mumba sit fifth on the table with 32 points; their playoff chances rest not just on a win, but also on the outcome of the Jaipur Patriots vs PBG Pune Jaguars tie. Five games might be enough, but nothing less than a fight will do for the team from Mumbai.
They come in buoyed by a gritty win over Stanley’s Chennai Lions, with Bernadette Szocs, Lilian Bardet, and Yashaswini Ghorpade all in strong form. Szocs and Bardet have each won three of their four matches, while Yashaswini—who beat China’s Fan Siqi in her previous outing—has won two of three.
