We can achieve 35 quota in athletics. What's your views.

Depends on the relays .................. if either the 4*100 women or 4*400 men make it ...there is a good chance  ( I am presuming the indian 4*400 women of course make it )

There are no ranking points for mixed doubles. Rohan-Sania should have played together at Wimbledon which would have given them some match practice before Rio.

 

I do not agree with the reason Sania gave in in interview that she had a prior commitment to play with Dodig. Why should she commit in first place when it was well known that she would play mixed doubles for India at Rio ( either with Leander or Rohan).

 

 

 

I think Sania gave the commitment to Dodig in Dec-Jan itself. At that point, Leander was considered pretty much a sure bet for the Mixed as opposed to Rohan, with Lee having won 3 of the last 4 mixed doubles grand slams. While his ranking had dipped a bit, everyone expected him to improve it in the Olympic year as opposed to dipping to such a level that he may not even qualify.

 

And there was no way Leander was splitting with Hingis to even play just Wimbledon with Sania (even Saina would not want that situation) .Thats why probably, Sania commited to Dodig. Of course, without a commitment, Dodig might have looked for other partners.

@nitinsanker I think we need to keep the number to 15 as 10 would make the teams even more similar..the last 4-5 spots are the ones actually creating differences in the teams.

I think it may be diplomatic strategy of Italy to win votes of cricket playing nations.

Yes I thought the same but its fine as long as they include Cricket after winning the hosting rights. They won't refuse to include Cricket after giving a word. And they will have provision of adding 5 new games so giving one place to cricket shouldn't be any harm as the cricket playing countries have backed them in winning

Thats what the captain and vice captain are for - pick the ones u think will win gold or silver as captain and vice captain.

 

Personally, I dont want to be predicting 4th place and top 8 for players like, say, Bindra or Narang who I hope to see return with gold, but if I have to predict exact placing then i'll probably have to predict a lower placing for them. But if there are others here who want to participate and think its good idea then we can consider it...

As it is a prediction contest................ we could also add +5 points where your prediction matches with the result ? , for example if I gave sania a silver and she gets a silver my team gets an additional 5 points ? do you feel this will make it more interesting and also allow a better points distribution ?...maybe we can only give G or S  or B ( no 4th or top 8  ) ........................ as we are hoping all of them medal ...

    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
    • You prefer matches in USA , look at that ...    Tourists to US would have to reveal five years of social media activity under new Trump plan to enter    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/10/tourists-social-media-trump
    • I would say - he did not share some part of "the profit" with someone from above )
    • Yeah, a complete failure all around. Only two individual quotas for men and two for women + mixed relay. Cortina looks like a big fat zero in the medal table tbh.
    • But yeah, as you said, their intention (if I have to guess) probably is to prevent Pan America from having 3 teams without going through the world oqt.  They were generous with the world cup qualification because it's in europe and with 16 teams but they won't be as much with their prime event.   Anyway, this doc is terribly written and could bring problems without an update.
    • IDK this seems like a big mistake on their part. They should have excluded Pan America from the first clause.    And also shoulda clarify if "highest placed" in the second statement means only champion or "highest placed not counting possible pro league qualified teams".
