Repechage looks pretty achievable for her

Lets hope the medical team is at work and Nisha recovers well. 

 

The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) has formed a 13-member panel of sports science experts who will travel to Paris to offer health and wellness support to the travelling Indian athletes. Headed by Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala as the Chief Medical Officer (CMO), the group consists of two physicians, three injury management professionals, three sports physiotherapists, two sports masseuse, two mental conditioning experts, two nutritionists, and a sleep therapist.


The team will be stationed at the recovery centre in the Games Village, a first-of-its-kind 600 square feet facility that will be equipped with all the necessary recovery equipment.


“This is the first time that such a high-profile team of sports science experts will be accompanying the team at the Olympics. The recovery centre is another first. All top-performing nations such as the US, UK, and Japan have such a facility for their athletes,” a senior IOA official informed.

Nine of the 13 experts, including Dr Pardiwala, will have the accreditation to stay in the Athletes Village while the rest will stay outside. Those staying outside will operate on a day pass that will allow them access to the Village between 10am-5pm.

The recovery room will have two inflatable ice baths, each enough to accommodate six people, Normatec legs and arms (recovery suits), two cooling units, three recliners, six massage guns, compression wraps, among others.

Such a hard luck for nisha...she was comfortably leading north korean girl with 1 minute to go

 

Disaster struck her and india in form of injury.....with the way she was wrestling and japanese girl out of competition india lost a sure shot medal here

 

For her to be in repechage for bronze first north korean girl has to reach final and nisha has to be fit by tomorrow for 2 matches....fingers crossed

Amit Elor will most likely defeat the North Korean girl. But you never also know with North Koreans. The japanese girl was also in the other half so it did not matter as far as reaching the final is concerned. I think Nisha vs Amit Elor would have been very close.
