Good Idea :yes I also thought of this .

 

So we have some interest in an India based prediction game....thus I have created a shared google sheet at the below link.

Vice Captain Narsingh Yadav

Guys, shooting quotas belong to the country, not to the individual. India has 2 quotas earned in 10m air rifle women - by Apurvi and Ayonika. But both quotas belong to India and NRAI can send any two shooters they desire to send, provided the shooter has met the MQS standard. So NRAI can still send Pooja if they so desire.

 

With that said, there is absolutely no chance of Pooja going. The NRAI is very firm and transparent on its selection policies and they don't change. They on purpose declare the team as early as March (in fact, the orig plan was to declare in Jan, got delayed because of the dealy in the Asian quota tournament) because they believe in providing athletes stability and a worry-free period of training, where their olympic place is assured and thus they can experiment, participate in as many tournaments as they want and skip whatever tournaments they want. Pooja has been doing well, but she's not gonna go to Rio !!!

Bang on Kapil! NRAI's selection policies need to be emulated by other federations as well. A couple of pointers:

 

1. While Pooja has been an in-form shooter, one should not forget Apurvi and Ayonika have come out on top of the selection process which was laid down well in advance. 

 

2. Both of them, even at their young age, are far more experienced shooters and Pooja has forayed in just an year ago...going by the form logic, shouldn't we also send Anjum Moudgil then? She shot 418+ in last wc and again finished in top 10 here in Baku

 

3. Most importantly, let's not forget the importance of pressure. AC / AP have immense amount of pressure to score good scores / retain their form on their road to prepare for Rio. Pooja has none. and thus a possibility of difference in performances @Sanjib

Great going by our athlete's. After remain locked on 96, we jumped to 102. Now 120 looks comfortably in reach. Any news from 4x400 men participation in meet going on now.

    • Out of curiosity, I listened to a few podcasts about Turkmenistan today. This country has very large deposits of natural gas. In the 1990s, a simple a ordinary people lived quite well there. In the early 21st century, Turkmenistan signed several unfavorable gas deals with China and has practically gone bankrupt since then. 1/3 of the population (about 2 million out of 6 million- mostly young people) emigrated, mainly to Turkey, India, etc. The future of this country is blacka and uncertain. I don't know what other options they have? Russia, Turkey, the EU? Of course, in terms of selling gas. Perhaps sanctions of Russia's and isolation due to the war in Ukraine would be a chance for Turkmenistan to establish economic relations with the EU, but the new president would probably have to loosen and a little liberate up his country's domestic politics.
    • A friend of mine who visited 97 countries of the world be in Turkmenistan (with Kunshamara, are the onlyones i know) and he tell me something that never see in another country: his presence was enough to make nervous to all the people, in restaurants, markets, etc, the presence of an "outsider" generate that.
