The five major suspense of the women's volleyball training camp is about to be revealed, and whether Zhu Ting will return to the squad
The 2023-2024 Women's Volleyball League is currently in its final game, and athletes will participate in the training of the national team after a New Year's break. There are still five unsolved mysteries in this year's training, let's take a look.
First of all, can Zhu Ting return to her team and put on her clothes?
After Cai Bin coached the Chinese volleyball team, the surprising thing was that the first person in the Chinese women's volleyball team, Zhu Ting, who was once known as the "first attacker", was excluded from the training squad of the national team. As a rule of thumb in previous years, even if they don't practice at all, their names will appear on the team's roster and will be marked as temporarily absent due to injury. However, we haven't found Zhu Ting in the Chinese women's volleyball team for almost two years. Now, Zhu Ting is 29 years old, and her attack level and peak level have dropped a lot. Whether she will return to the national team is a question. If the Chinese women's volleyball team can have Zhu Ting on the training squad after New Year's Day, then she will still fight for her country. And Zhu Ting has little chance of playing for the Chinese women's volleyball team at the Paris Olympics.
Secondly, can Wang Yunrui play? Zhang Changning and Wu Mengjie are expected to be promoted.
Cai Bin reminded that the training of Wang Yunrui and others was the most controversial. Cai Bin said that Wang Yunrui is a typical "wheel battle", with the attacking means of the back trio being almost none, and can only play one pass, while the defense is as solid as the starter. Some people also compare Wang Yunrui with Wang Mengjie, thinking that she is like a free agent who can only play one game, the only difference is that Wang Mengjie did not make any mistakes, but Wang Yunrui is a gift package for the Chinese women's volleyball team to make mistakes. Will this free agent become the main force this season? This is a question to look forward to. Zhang Changning returned to the league with an excellent record of 7 shots and 6s, but it remains to be seen whether she can achieve the same result in the national team. Wu Mengjie's progress is very rapid, but Cai Bin relies too much on the experience of the central defender, and Wu Mengjie is the backup candidate for the main force.
Third, which is the No. 3 player of II-VI and Yang Hanyu? The shortcomings of Yuan Xinyue and Wang Yuanyuan are clear at a glance.
With the withdrawal of Yan Ni and Xu Yunli, the Chinese women's volleyball team's ability to block the net has decreased most significantly. Although Yuan Xinyue and Wang Yuanyuan also have good attacks, compared to Japan and Thailand, their blocking nets are still a little worse. Carol of the Brazilian women's basketball team, who is more than 1.8 meters tall, has a good ability to block the net, while Yuan Xinyue and Wang Yuanyuan, girls who are 1.9 meters tall, have no chance to contact football when they are in the national team. In the semifinals with Shanghai Women's University, neither Yuan Xinyue nor Wang Yuanyuan could stop Zhong Hui's footsteps. The second place of the Chinese women's volleyball team is also a big problem for an excellent blocker, and Yang Hanyu of Yigao won the third place.
Fourth, Xu Xiaoting can replace Ding Xia as a backup setter, and Cai Bin is afraid that he will reap the consequences if he speeds up.
Diao Linyu and Ding Xia's performances are very ordinary, Diao Linyu is the two core players of the national team, and it is almost impossible to get the top ten. The feeling of being fast makes the power of this ball very unstable, after an attack, Diao Linyu's movements become very fast, the best way is to control his attack and make his passing more accurate and stable. Ding Xia went abroad and became a substitute, with little chance of playing, and his skills were very average, which was completely different from his state. If Lang Ping's courage is followed, Xu Xiaoting can also take on the second position. Cai Bin is too cautious, he has not trained newcomers, Diao Linyu is the main force, if Ding Xia suddenly stops and does not pass the ball out, it is asking for hardship, the Paris Olympics, how can she put out the fire?
Fifth, who will be the third athlete at the Paris Olympics? Can Wu Mengjie become this lucky person?
The Paris Olympics also increased the number of participating teams to 13 per team to prevent athletes from being injured. In the national team, the receiving point in the Chinese women's volleyball team does not seem to be too good, so in the selection of the No. 13 position, it will also be biased towards the main attack and free man. In the past two years, Cai Bin has been leading the team to international competitions. The biggest weakness of Chinese women's volleyball is the low level of attack of the wide attacking players. The biggest weakness of Chinese women's volleyball is the side attack. In the face of Serbia and Turkey, Li Yingying did not play at the level she should have, Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning were injured, it was difficult for Cai Bin to give up Wang Yunrui, can Wu Mengjie still win the thirteenth place in the Olympic Games?
