China rallied past Japan 3-2 to claim their sixth consecutive women's title at the ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals in Busan on Saturday.

It was also a record-extending 23rd time that China has lifted the coveted Corbillon Cup in history.

In the two sides' fifth straight head-to-head final in the tournament dating back to 2014, the trio of Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng and Wang Yidi helped China emerge victorious again to stand on top of the podium.
