Yes. There is also a chance in ongoing 470 Asian Championships. There are only 15 teams: 5 from China (not eligible), 5 from India and 5 from other nations. But, since no team of ours participated in Asian Games, not sure how good are our chances of winning the lone quota on offer. 

There is nothing like a chance or anything. Only for exposure we are sending 5 teams. We are very bad in this event. At the 2018 Asian Championships we finished 10th and 11th behind China, Japan,  HKG, Singapore, both Korean Thailand pairs and behind 1 Malaysian team and the gap is just huge like 19 and 60 points between Korea and India. So no question about qualifications.

Good selection trials in boxing I feel the teams are the best we could have hoped for   

Mary kom ... 51

Sakshi       57

Simranjit - 60 

Lovlina      69 

Pooja....... 75

 

I am happy that sarita got defeated in the 60 because she has not done anything in the global arena at all...... 

 

I think sakshi is a really fast boxer and has age on her side, lovlina , Mary and pooja to some extent select Themselves

This is the mens team- 

 

52kg Amit
57kg Gaurav Solanki
63kg Manish Kaushik
69kg Vikas Krishan
75kg Ashish Kumar
81kg Sachin Kumar
91kg Naman Tanwar
91kg +Satish Kumar
 

A bit surprising that Gaurav Solanki won here ahead of Kavinder Bisht. Otherwise expected results. Good to see Vikas Krishan making an attempt again to qualify for olympics after turning professional.

    • In my opinion we can lose to Argentina, if it's 0-1 in a moment. This Davis Cup format is a lottery, especially with the shortened doubles. It's no coincidence that all the favorites can/will can be eliminated in the quarter-finals. The second thing is that Argentina has a very solid team: 2 players in the top 30 + a strong doubles. If you sure to will win with them, you would have to have 2 Sinners in great shape.
    • Both Edin and Retornaz at 6-3 just like rank 2 and 3. Just very small margins on h2h and DSC
    • Godun has been training in Italy and Hungary for over 2 years. It's strange that she didn't take a Hungarian passport. Our predecures are so long that it probably wouldn't make sense.
    • Our worst European Men's Championship in this cycle: no promotion to the 1/2. Retronaz has been in poor form since the beginning of the season. The change of the head coach in the Italian team last spring may have had an impact. Unfortunately, the closer to the games, the worse it gets for us and it should be better because we are the organizers.

    • Daniel Huber picked up a kee injury during training at Lillehammer.   Piotr Żyła will skip the season opener because of a knee injury too.
    • Agree with you on this. The only missed category was Long Track Speed Skating where Cornelius Kersten and Ellia Smeding have done a good job getting us involved in this event again after many years absence. He won a Bronze medal at 2023 worlds but both are realistically fringe contenders and main goal is to grow the sport here.   As for our general chances by British standards we tend to do well at the various world championships before a Winter Olympics to raise hopes and then several dont quite deliver when its time. Would prefer the reverse to happen where we save our best for 2026 and help boost our Winter sports growth.

    • I suppose Lithuania qualified for women's world championships for the first time. Skip Virginija Paulauskaitė will debut at the age of 53 after she won silver medal in senior world championships. Incredible example of sport longevity
