All Indian TT stars at Chile Pro Tour advance

Harmeet Desai and Soumyajit Ghosh

All the 10 Indian players (five men and five women) at the Santiago tourney made it to the pre-quarterfinals! This is definitely a record in Indian Table Tennis history.

Of course, there will be those who complain that the tourney does not feature big stars, but it does augur well for Indian Table Tennis, especially since there are quite a few youngsters in the draw.
In fact, there is some good news and some bad news on this front. Harmeet Desai and Soumyajit Ghosh meet in the round of 16, but one of them will reach the quarter finals of a Pro Tour event in their teenage years, which is a huge boost for their confidence.
None of the Indian women players meet each other.

Pre quarterfinalists:
Women: Mamta Prabhu, Manika Batra, Madhurika Patkar, K Shamini, and Ankita Das
Men: Sourav Chakraborty, Soumyadeep Roy, Harmeet Desai, Soumyajit Ghosh, and Sanil Shetty

Three men and four women in this old photo will represent India at the WTTC 2011 
Sourav, Pathik (retired), and Neha did not make it this time. The others did.

India's truly international Table Tennis player, Achanta Sharath Kamal will once again lead the squad at the World Championships at Rotterdam. The tournament formally starts from May 8th, 2011.

The Indian team is in China to prepare for the championships.

Full team:

Men: Sharath Kamal, Amalraj Anthony, Soumyadeep Roy, Abhishek Ravichandran and Subhajit Saha

Sharath, Soumyadeep in Semis

Favourites Sharath Kamal and Soumyadeep Roy reached the semi finals of the 72 nd National and Inter State Table Tennis Championships at Kolkata. Sharath beat giant killer, Anirban Nandi 4-0 in the quarterfinals. Sharath now meets state-mate R Abishek in the semi-finals.

Soumyadeep plays young Soumyajit Ghosh in the other semi-finals.

In the women's section, it is Nandita Saha vs Mamta Prabhu and K Shamini vs Madhurika Patkar. The top seed Mouma Das was shocked by Nandita in the quarter finals. The player to watch here is Madhurika, who seems to be in sharp form.
