Paris Olympics 2024 Table Tennis: Sreeja Akula vs Christina Kallberg preview, prediction, head-to-head, and live stream details

Indian table tennis sensation Sreeja Akula is set to face Sweden’s Christina Kallberg in the Round of 64 at the Paris Olympics 2024. The match is scheduled for July 28 at South Paris Arena 4.

Akula, currently India's top-ranked female paddler in women’s singles, holds the World No. 25 position. Akula has been in excellent form in 2024, starting the year with a WTT Feeder Corpus Christi singles title in Texas. She continued her winning streak by clinching another title in Beirut.

However, Akula's most significant achievement came in June when she made history by becoming the first Indian paddler to win a WTT Contender singles title in Lagos. Alongside her singles success, Akula also secured the doubles title with her Paris-bound teammate, Archana Kamath.

Meanwhile, Sweden’s Christina Kallberg is ranked 58th in women’s singles and was previously a part of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics as well. Although the 25-year-old lost in the first round, she would be aiming to improve upon that performance this time against Akula, who is making her debut Olympic appearance.
