24th July is D-Day. Make or Break for the nation!!

yeah...1st sporting day  is very crucial and as was the case in rio....

 

it will set the tone with 4 medal chances in weightlifting, shooting (men and women) and mixed archery

 

But one good thing with this Olympics is we have medal chances on other days also with most crucial day on 27th when both air rifle and air pistol mixed team events are scheduled !!!

Yes, I am counting the updated list. That list is public since yesterday and that was linked here as well, so no point in counting any old lists.

The teams are reaching Tokyo. Let's hope for a bumper harvest on 24th.

 

Morning shows the day...24th July is the day that will lead to more glory later in the Olympics.

Tennis update:

 

Entries are now closed in terms of new replacements. Any replacements would have to be from athletes already on-site, according to ITF.


 

So it means, India will not be able field a men's doubles team.

It also means that Sania and Sumit may not enter Mixed Doubles with CR of 153.
