Kuai Man is 21 years old and Lin Shidong is 20 years old. Picheford is 31 years old, and his partner, Helsey, is 18 years old.

The two pairs met in the quarter-finals of the 2023 WTT Lanzhou Conventional Challenge. At that time, the anime group defeated their opponents with a relatively difficult 3:2.

When the gear of time rotates to May 2025, Lin Shidong/Kuaiman's strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

The whole game, it can be said that the "animation" combination completely suppressed the opponent in the first two games. The "Yingwei combination" was exhausted and had almost no power to fight back, so it was soon defeated.

The third round changed slightly, and Piccheford/Holsey strengthened the offense and led 4-2 at one point. Lin Shidong/Kuai Man held his position and overtook 5-4 again.

10-6 mastered the match point and couldn't beat it for a long time. Coach Xiao Zhan called a timeout at 10-8 to teach the opportunity in person.

In the end, Lin Shidong/Kuaiman won the third game 11-8, taking a solid first step for the Chinese table tennis team's journey to the Doha World Table Tennis Championships!

Congratulations to Lin Shidong/Kuai Man for advancing to the top 32 in the mixed doubles in the Doha World Table Tennis Championships.
