Olympics previously meant government officials, netas and babus going on a paid vacation.. then slowly the results started coming...Now we our excepting out best performance ever, and by some decisive margins... Lots of changes are coming together...For the first time im seeing a larger interest of the people and the media on Indian olympic hopes.... So, the outburst is understandable.... federations are slowly making efforts to manage their affairs better....ppl are realizing the need for sport science... Government is realising the need for a long term planning and execution... But there's one thing Im sure of....Even if we surpass our London tally or not, Indian sports would be the ultimate winner... Say we dont surpass out London tally....the government will ask questions of the federations, which will improve accountability... Say, we do surpass our London tally - lot of media coverage, increased following and viewership, which means greater corporate participation Very True.. I am 100% Confident . We will improve in sport from now on .. if we have result or no result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazique 1 Posted August 12, 2016 #4145 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I dont know wht it is with indian shooters . they perform so well till the last round and make us believe that qualification is guranteed but suddenly in the last round when others up their game our shooters just cant hold on to the consistency . May be its lack of composure or overconfidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazique 1 Posted August 12, 2016 #4146 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Jwala ashwini also lost . Great fight by them. Just saw the match it looked like indians were on wrong side of the court as in the last game a single push was taking the shuttle wide and in the second game were they were on the other side they won it quite comprehensively. Looks like luck is not favoring the indians at all this olympics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrikant 3 Posted August 12, 2016 #4150 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Frankly speaking even in shooting world championship our shooters are always in 9th to 12th Bracket except Jitu Rai who played well below his level.... Since all of them dont follow world shooting championships which happens every quarterly or sometimes on monthly basis... They will find our results bit astonishing...For eg Mairaj has qualified twice in finals and no medals yet... Gagan narang actually shoot well today or else he would have been in 20th to 25th position.... Chain singh performed below par... Hats off Atanu das .... You played very well and no regrets for your loss... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
