Any live streaming available for India's Davis Cup match against South Korea?

It is live on DD Sports. Can't watch on TV? I remember last olympics a few of us had found a few streams of DD sports. Should be available on the net.

Nirmala and Anas are a part of relay team. That's confirmed!

If any of you guys are on twitter, you could give K.P. Mohan a follow. I am sure he needs no introduction and is also pretty active there with all the latest info regarding athletics.

 

My Initial information was correct -   AFI  in an attempt to increase participation did send a list which did not include nirmala sheoran , anas and tintu but IAAF had put a rider only in dec that your 4*400 relay squad must include your 400 distance runners necessarily........ so now they have dropped the idea and added anas and nirmala ............................... The full story is given below 

 

http://www.thehindu.com/sport/other-sports/rio-olympics-2016-indian-olympics-athletics-team-to-be-reduced-to-36/article8850343.ece

 

...    I am not clear about tintu status because they do not need to include tintu ( the rule applies  only to events corresponding to the relay ) ...if Tintu is not included should we not have 1 extra quota ....... That of course depends on the nominations in the 20 km walk and 50 km walk I think  ........................... are we at  121 or  120  ? 

 

Incidentally :hatoff: to dolby who when I put the posting immediately said that nirmala and anas ahve to be included but tintu can be excluded ...................... I hereby vote to send @Dolby to train all the federations on the Rio rules :p, they seem to be know so little

Thanks for the kind words. All the qualification documents are easily available. I don't know why federations and journalists don't take the effort to read 2-4 pages of document and avoid such fiascos. We already saw how media and Boxing federation created a hype about Wild Card for Mary Kom. And now AFI, one of the better run federations, led by a former Olympian. :wall:

Correct...great idea

The Union Government has planned to bring sports fans together to celebrate the spirit of Olympics by putting up giant screens at open spaces in all major Indian cities. The concept of ‘fan park’ is a big hit among major football playing nations where fans enjoy the tournaments on giant screens set up at a central location. Sports Minister Vijay Goel said that the locations  will have giant screens, on which events involving the Indian athletes will be aired live.

Nice concept but not sure how successful it would be considering the huge time difference

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway
