Ultimate Table Tennis 2024: U Mumba TT and Ahmedabad SG Pipers Eye Second Win

U Mumba TT and Ahmedabad SG Pipers will clash at the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium on Tuesday, both aiming to secure their second victory in the ongoing Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT) 2024 season.

Both teams have mirrored results in their opening two matches. U Mumba TT defeated Dabang Delhi TTC 9-6 in their first tie but fell to Jaipur Patriots by the same margin in their second. Ahmedabad SG Pipers, on the other hand, lost their UTT debut to Puneri Paltan Table Tennis 10-5 but bounced back to beat reigning champions Athlead Goa Challengers by the same score.

The franchise-based league, promoted by Niraj Bajaj and Vita Dani under the TTFI, is being broadcast live on Sports18 Khel on TV and JioCinema in India, and Facebook Live outside India. Tickets are available online through BookMyShow and offline at the stadium box office.

U Mumba TT is led by Indian ace Manav Thakkar, who displayed his resilience in the loss to Jaipur Patriots. He could potentially face off against Ahmedabad SG Pipers' captain Manush Shah, promising an exciting encounter for table tennis enthusiasts.

Ahmedabad SG Pipers' victory over Athlead Goa Challengers marked the first triumphs of UTT 2024 for their foreign stars Bernadette Szocs and Lilian Bardet. U Mumba TT will hope their upcoming clash does the same for their duo Quadri Aruna and Maria Xiao, who have yet to win a match despite showing glimpses of their prowess.

The tie between U Mumba TT and Ahmedabad SG Pipers could also feature a rematch between Sutirtha Mukherjee and Reeth Rishya in the women's singles. In the previous season's final, Sutirtha won the match, but Reeth claimed a game, helping Athlead Goa Challengers to an 8-7 victory.
