Five of my team players competed in the Thailand Volleyball Championship in Si Sa Ket to get used to the conditions and flew to Vietnam three days ago to join the other seven, Australia head coach Martin Collins commented after the match.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur next match will be against Thailand, the team we had played a couple of friendlies. We saw them play yesterday. They are not fast styled and I think we got a good challenge against them. On our expectation, I think it\u2019s how consistent we can play volleyball. In this top-level competition, to finish among top eight, you need to play more constantly and it also depends on how you can play your best point,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also ending their pool plays on Sunday were Chinese Taipei. Demolishing India in straight sets 25-18 25-12 25-10 helped them keep hopes of advancing to the top eight teams alive.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43605\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-2.jpg 960w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/e-2-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Wen Yi-Chin chipped in with 11 points for Chinese Taipei including 7 attacks from 9 attempts and a team-leading 3 blocks, while Liu Yu-Chun, Chang Jai-Ling and Chen Yu-Chien came up with three aces apiece.

After the first set, we improved our serve and team organisation including blocks and attacks. Although we are assured of advancing to the top eight teams, a tough task awaits us as we have to take on top two teams in Pool A including Vietnam. Vietnam are a good team, while my players are very young, most of them are 19 years of age. However, I think we still have a chance and we have to try. We had trained only one month in preparation for this championship. I took part in other competitions including one in Italy. I asked staff coaches to take care of this team during that time,\u201d commented Chinese Taipei head coach Koji Tsuzurabara.<\/p>\n<p>India will next go up against China on Monday in a match to determine their chances for the next round. A loss to China will relegate India to classification round for the 9th-13th places.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43609\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/j.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/j.jpg 960w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/j-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/j-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/j-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the third match at Gia Lam Gymnasium, New Zealand proved too strong for underdogs, pint-sized Maldives to power past the poorly-trained rivals in a completely one-sided affair 25-10 25-15 25-6 in 53 minutes in their Pool A encounter.<\/p>\n<p>Tiatia Italia chipped in with 7 points for New Zealand including 5 attacks from 11 attempts, while team-mate Pio Nicky produced a team-leading 4 aces.

As we know, China are very strong, but for us to have a chance to play both China and Chinese Taipei is very exciting and we are looking for it. Our first goal here is to advance to the top eight and we are very proud to win today\u2019s match.
