The winner of the clash will face Goa Challengers in the final of Ultimate Table Tennis 2024.
Debutants Ahmedabad SG Pipers will hope to make it a memorable campaign by reaching their maiden Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT) title clash when they take on 2018 champions Dabang Delhi TTC in the second semi-final of the IndianOil UTT 2024 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai today.
The winner of today’s knockout fixture will set their date with defending champions Athlead Goa Challengers in Saturday’s summit clash. The Harmeet Desai-led Athlead Goa Challengers on Thursday stormed into their second successive UTT final when they handed a 8-4 defeat to the Manika Batra-led PBG Bengaluru Smashers in the first semi-final.
The franchise-based league is promoted by Niraj Bajaj and Vita Dani under the auspices of the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI). The league is airing on Sports18 Khel and streaming live on JioCinema in India and Facebook Live outside India. Tickets are available online through BookMyShow and offline at the Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium box office near Gate no.
Playing their maiden season, Ahmedabad SG Pipers and Dabang Delhi TTC exchanged places after the end of the league stage on Wednesday with the Ahmedabad-based outfit finishing second with 42 points while the Delhi-based team ended third with 41 points.
Fresh from a 12-3 drubbing of fellow UTT 2024 debutants, Jaipur Patriots in their final league outing on Wednesday, Ahmedabad SG Pipers appear a formidable force as they gear up against former champions Dabang Delhi TTC.
Led respectively by young Manush Shah and the experienced Sathiyan Gnanasekaran, the clash between the two sides promises to be an absolute thriller with both Manush and Sathiyan potentially facing off in the men’s singles opener. The presence of World No. 13 Bernadette Szocs of Romania in the Ahmedabad SG Pipers squad bolsters their equation in the potential match-up against Thailand’s Orawan Paranang.
