Aliya Mustafina and Tatiana Nabieva to Compete in DTB Cup

Aliya Mustafina will represent Russia the the DTB Cup in Stuttgart Germany. Not to be confused with the Stuttgart World Cup, which will be held the same weekend.
This is a team competition, whereas the World Cup is an individual all-around event.

Joining her will be Tatiana Nabieva (whom we're assuming has healed since whacking her head at worlds), Anna Rodionova and Ekaterina Kramerenko. They will also be accompanied by a quartet of strapping young men, Dmitry Stolyarov , Daniel Kazatchkov, Paul Pavlov and Nikita Lezhankin.

The competition will be held in Stuttgart, Germany, November 29-December 1.
