I have high hopes from both Bajrang and Neeraj. Would be delighted if one of the dark horses does win a historic medal. 

 

Imagine, how great this Olympics would have been if we would have won couple of Shooting medals as well. 

yes, 8 seems reasonable.

For me, the magic number would have been 10.

We should have crossed 10. We've lost chances quite a few chances.

That is bound to happen. Not all chances would win medals. Prior to Olympics started, my path to 10 medals was 

Shooting: 2 (disaster)

Boxing: 2 (slightly less. 0 medal in Men's boxing was painful)

Wrestling: 2 (expected 2 medals out of Ravi, Vinesh and Bajrang. Possibly on track. Was hoping that some of our younger wrestler will pull a Sakshi and win an unexpected Bronze but alas)

Weightlifting: 1 (Was a lock, delivered)

Others: 3 (Got 2. Chance for more) There were no clear favourites in others. There were a lot of contenders/dark horses only.

Disappointment is probably this time also we will end without a gold

Yes. I guess what happens with other countries is that many of their non-favourite athletes rise their levels at the Olympics and convert a silver to a gold like probably Ravi could have done today.

Wrestling :

 

Saara Hamdi of Tunisia beat Seema Bisla 3-1 in the 1/8 Final of Women's 50 Kg Freestyle wrestling

 

 

4 Indian women wrestlers went to Tokyo. Vinesh is the only one to win her 1st bout.

Sonam, Anshu, Seema Bisla have all lost their opening bouts.

 

Doesn't tell a good story
