In this tournament 4 of India Paddlers have sealed their seat for Tokyo Olympic. Veteran table tennis star Sharath Kamal will head to the Olympics for the 4th time in his career as he sealed the Tokyo ticket with a dominant win over Pakistan's Muhammad Rameez.

Sharath Kamal made remarkable play in last Olympics.  He  thrashed Rameez 11-4, 11-1, 11-5, 11-4 in little over 22 minutes in the second men's singles round-robin match in the South Asia group. However here it is to be noted that He had lost his opening match 9-11, 13-15, 11-5, 11-7, 12-10, 9-11, 8-11 to compatriot Gnansekaran Sathiyan. The win over Rameez ensured at least a second-place finish for Kamal and it was enough to secure a spot in the delayed Games, scheduled to begin in July.

However, here it is to be noted that Sathiyan is the top-ranked Indian men's singles paddler, qualified by topping the group after a win over Rameez in the final round-robin match in Doha. Meanwhile, India's second-ranked women's singes player Sutirtha Mukherjee stunned top-ranked Manika Batra 4-2 in their one-off match to book her place in the Tokyo Olympics, her maiden appearance at the Games.
