As expected (or not :
), Iyama cannot participate.
Seems a good chance for the 2 young players to gain experience. And also a chance for the 3 others (top 10 in Japan I believe) to "upgrade" their strength in international matches.
But with this team I think there is little hope to become a "dark horse", especially when China send out their 4 recent world champions.
