Regarding Badminton, post-COVID struggles aside, Lakshya Sen is a super talent. He had already started winning tournaments (lower levels) in his first year in Senior circuit. So, I have high hopes from him. Apart from him, I think we have a host of players who would be in 20-50 ranking range. Basically, same as now. 

 

In WS, I don't have much hopes on any of the youngsters. If you are still playing in Junior circuit at 18-19, it is a clear indication that you are not going to be the next superstar. Tasnim looks promising but not enough dataset to make a prediction about her.

 

MD seems to be our deepest category now. Satwik/Chirag are monsters. Arjun/Dhruv have been the only ones who gave some fight in both the ties in Sudirman Cup. Then, we also have Krishna/Vishnu pair who also seem promising. 

 

In WD, we have 3 very good pais: Tanisha/Rutuparna, Ashwini/Sikki and Gayatri/Treesa. Ashwini has been our best WD player for quite some time but I don't think it makes much sense in pairing her with Tanisha or another youngster. Teams should be made keeping Paris in mind. 

 

Considering that we have a decent pool of young doubles players, having decent XD teams is doable. 

 

BTW, really disappointed at our performance in Sudirman Cup. Tanisha/Rutuparna won the trials ahead of Ashwini/Sikki but still didn't get to play WD. What is the point of having trials then? Srikanth/Sai are in horrible form. They both should seriously take a long break and return in lower tournaments to get some match practice. Also, what is this fascination of playing Singles players in Doubles. Couldn't Dhruv or Arjun played in XD? Ashwini/Dhruv even played a couple of tournaments together this year. :facepalm:

Good points, Lakshya recently haven't done well good that he is full time in Senior circuit now also Kiran George won a tournament recently after winning the nationals, haven't seen Tasnim and Samiya play yet, I feel no point in playing Ashwini with Siki anymore if not with Tanisha or any other new player better focus only on Mixed doubles with Satwik or Dhruv, Satwik doesn't have the fitness to play both forms though, Siki can waste time with any another mediocre player. Surely Arjun and Dhruv are on an upwards curve.

    • Exactly. Recent developments of the construction haven't been particularly encouraging, and while they'll probably get everything sorted just in time, a lot of North American fans have been quite vocal about every minor inconvenience.
    • Wednesday December 10th, 2025 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +1)   12:30   Austria vs Norway 16:00   Ukraine vs Slovenia 19:30   Kazakhstan vs France
    • Do or die for the US women.  Japan has nothing to play for, but I'm sure they would love to beat Norway if they have to face them again.  Let's go Tabitha!

    • vs.  to see who can play in.  If  wins and  loses to , then  will be in 2nd place due to tie breaker (we beat Norway).  C'mon ladies!   
    • 6 games done in the Women's Draw & even without the final result of   the top 4 cannot be shaken, so the last round will merely determine the semi-final draws   Women       JPN 6   0     P NOR 4   1     GER 4   2     USA 4   2     TUR 2   4     CZE 1   4     AUS 1   5     EST 1   5    
    • Yeah, Today was added the 34th Quota for Team Slovakia.    5th Sport, 7th Female athlete of the team, Return to the Olympic Short Track Speed Skating for Slovakia after 12 years     One of the two young girls Tamara Tokárová or Lea Popovičová will represent the country in Milano 2026 in Short Track Speed Skating. The chosen one will be announced by our federation in the following weeks after some internal evaluations of current performances of both girls being done.   For one or the other it will be an Olympic debut and for the country a return under the five rings in this sport since Sochi 2014.   Our representative will take part only in the W 500m   Team (Updated as of 9th December 2025) 34 Athletes (27 M + 7 W)   Ice Hockey : (25 Athletes: 25+0) M Team   Figure Skating: (1 Athlete: 1+0) Adam Hagara (M Singles)   Biathlon: (4 Athletes: 0+4) TBD (W Sprint, W Pursuit ?, W Individual, W Mass Start ?, W Relay) TBD (W Sprint, W Pursuit ?, W Individual, W Mass Start ?, W Relay) TBD (W Sprint, W Pursuit ?, W Individual, W Mass Start ?, W Relay) TBD (W Sprint, W Pursuit ?, W Individual, W Mass Start ?, W Relay)   Ski Mountaineering: (3 Athletes: 1+2) Jakub Šiarnik (M Sprint, Mixed Relay) Marianna Jagerčíková (W Sprint, Mixed Relay) Rebeka Cully (W Sprint)   Short Track Speed Skating: (1 Athletes: 0+1) TBD (W 500m)
    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
